Demogorgon

Who doesn't love Stranger Things? I DO! But I would being lying if I said the monsters didn't give me nightmares. How did I fix it when the Demogorgon was haunting my dreams? Made him into this cutie little ornament!!
I had this pattern listed on Etsy for a while but it's a bit iffy with intellectual property SO I decided not to sell it anymore. I do want everyone to have a cute Demogorgon for your tree so now the pattern is free! 
If you did purchase this pattern from me in the past, please have a little browse of my Etsy shop, pick out another ornament or hoop you would like to make, shoot me a message with your choice on Etsy and I'll send you that replacement pattern for free. 
 
You can also make a cool Stranger Things hoop with this pattern.

This little fella is right at home on a Halloween or Christmas tree!! 
Happy Creating!

If you have any issues downloading the pattern just shoot me an email on elliottsplayground@gmail.com and I will email the pattern back to you!!

Sitting Camel ~ A Bonus Pattern for the Nativity

 

I was working on a Nativity set an realised I wanted more levels so decided a sitting Camel would be nice!! This isn't a stand alone pattern but a modification to the Camel in the Melchior & the Camel Pattern. You will need that pattern to have all of the instructions to complete the sitting camel. You can find that Pattern in my Etsy shop.

Camel's like to fold their legs under them when they set so I just did a stem stitch outline of the legs on either side of the body.

The Front Piece is added with a blanket stitch.

I hot glued a piece of cardboard and some weights to the bottom before stuffing and closing up the Camel with a blanket stitch.
I put little pockets on the back pack instead of rolled blankets just to get some variety.
