Franky finished at 43" wide by 70" tall. He did NOT want to be bound, probably because the backing fabric was a tight squeeze widthwise.

I only embellished Franky himself. He has eyes, spider neck knobs, spider web buttons and a spider and web necktie. His eyes are a little beady but I love the buttons enough that I'm willing to overlook that.

The next character will not be for a while yet. I'm looking forward to seeing what others have come up with. Any new or recently finished projects? Or some progress reports?

Alas!! I am baaaaaack and on the QB!!!!

I'm so happy to see that Franky is fully "dressed" now, with lots of "showtime" this season! Long, tall and handsome! :)

I bet you SMILE every time you see him and hopefully he is hanging in your home so that you do see him quite often!! :)

W4Me ... Your embellishments are perfect! The "button buttons" couldn't have been a better choice! Eyes are beady but not too much, besides, isn't Franky's supposed to be? Neck knobs are priceless. And he's ever-so dapper, with a necktie!! :) Your scrappy binding, just seems to "right" for this project. Your fighting with him to do so, was well worth it! :)

Hey ........ where is everyone????


Come out from your lurking caves and at least say hello!!!!! :)

Thank you QuiltE, and welcome back, for a short time.

Actually, Franky's eyes are beads, not buttons. Why I said buttons I have no idea. I bought several of the beads from Etsy and she threw in some adorable mummy beads.

Franky is visible every time I come in the front door. Also, every time I walk from one end of the house to the other and, yes, I smile when I see him. I also find myself apologizing frequently for how long I left him in a box. He doesn't seem to have taken it personally, though.

I agree with QuiltE, where is everyone? Surely there are some snowman, or penguin, or Santa projects in the works for Christmas.

And I expect to see some progress on Miss Peep and her meadow for Spring.

Monsters Inc looks awesome :thumbup:

Hi jaybraueir - perhaps you can use our characters as inspiration to make a character quilt and join us. We'd love to see some new creatures.

Wow they are great.
