What happens when a robot that is hard as steel turned into a softie?
I made this lumpy robot more than a week ago using stretch polyester pants. The owner is my little nephew. I just randomly cut the material to make the body parts - two simple squares and limbs which to me is the robot's special feature. The hands was inspired from crab's claw & legs. The mouth has a small pocket to hide things ;). Even though I was eyeballing the measurements and pattern, I'm glad that robot turned out looking cute.
Finished size: 23.5" (height: from head to toe) X 9" (body width) X 3.5" (depth)
If you're wondering how I made robot give a 'peek a boo' pose, for sure nothing mechanical involved.....it's purely head pins pinned in between the hands and face. I made the animated gif at Makeagif.
Here are more robot's cute poses:
I've crafted something on earth day & I'll be posting a 'earth day inspired' tutorial soon. So keep on checking my blog.
Enjoy your weekend!
