The latest in sewing with Tyvek - an albino version of mmmcrafts's Molly Monkey. I'm almost a little embarrassed to call her Molly Monkey, because Molly is SO CUTE and this one is so. . . zombie-esque? But It's a great free pattern and I'm definitely planning to make a normal one. Not that albino monkeys aren't normal. You know what I mean.

We had fun coloring this one together. I tattooed one arm and then felt that took the creepy factor over the top so I tried to give her a cross necklace to balance things out. I don't think it helped. But that's the beauty of these things. . . one trip through the washing machine and she'll be back to her uninked self. I did make a few changes v. the Black Apple doll. . . I used black for the topstitching and I think it gives a little needed definition. I also used Tyvek-covered buttons for the eyes which I love.

Have any of you done any fun sewing projects on non-fabric? After the oilcloth and Tyvek I'm kind of in the mood.
