My Other Creations: Wizard Lizards

So why is my blog called Snapping Monsters anyway?  A good question indeed!  When trying to think up my blog name (you fellow bloggers may know the anguish and triumph of that little activity), I was just beginning to delve into my non-existent sewing skills.  Since I am an anti-pattern-follower (not necessarily by choice, but by cognitive abilities), I didn't think I'd ever be able to make cute little stuffed animals and creatures.  But heck, I tried it anyway and loved seeing how if I could sew a stitch at all on the machine (that wasn't easy at first, either) then I could make creatures after all.  I started making cloth monsters and once I finished them, I would snap pics of them.  Get it?  Snapping Monsters?  As in snapping pictures of monsters?  And so my blog name was born.

Here are some of my Wizard Lizards.
