OMG! Indeed!! I just about wet myself laughing at this post. It truly has to go down as one of my all time favourites anywhere! I want to keep it on the screen all the time to remind me not to take life so seriously sometimes.....hehehehe Thanks Jodie! Kiss Noises Linda
I was feeling so down this morning and then I went to read your post. I laughed so hard. Thank you, Oh God of Costume Makers! We need a tutorial for this beause I may need to be this at Halloween! I bow at your feet!
I was laughing at your post on my "dashboard" before I'd even opened it! You're a hoot, Jod! You make me laugh all the time, it's another one of your many gifts that you share with the world! Thanks for the giggle!
For a moment I thought I was looking at a photo of my kids through a flue induced haze - then I realised your creative genius has struck again. Love them - thank you for making my day.
Holy Cow Woman, do you do drugs??? Those are amazing! My kids grew up with Sesame Street, but how did I miss the Yip Yips? I watched the link from Emma's comment -- so fun!
They were sooooooooo my favourite. Loved them. Bought back the childhood memories. Need to connect with those memories a little more often- great way to keep up the inspiration for living the Kre8ive Life.
My heart skipped a beat when I saw these. I have been afraid of these Sesame Street aliens since I was a child. I would always hide my eyes when they came through the wall.
Toooo cute. Having two makes it so much more lovely. I was a lonely Yip Yip last fall... but my hot pink would complement your duo nicely, i think.... http://plazajen.com/blog/?p=1508
omigosh, my kids and I used to watch Sesame Street every day, hoping these guys would show up! They were our favorite characters.Thanks for the memory.
Hilarious! I found myself sitting in front of the TV, age 4, watchin Seasame Street, laughing and re-acting their "telephone" skit!! Thanks, I really needed that this morning!! Could you share the project directions?
Hi, I am Jodie Carleton. I started this blog in 2007 and somehow a tiny business grew from it. So now when I am not at my regular job I can be found happily making toys in my sewing room or swearing at the computer as I try and write the patterns. I am obsessed with foxes, pinnochio, Red Riding Hood and mechanical toys- actually pretty much any toys.
Say Hi if you have time, feel free to email me with any questions you have, I'm always happy to procrastinate by answering emails.
These tutorials are here for you to have a try. Please feel free to make any number of these items for your own use or gift-giving but please do not make items to sell using these instructions.

OMGosh ... you are so FREAKING clever!!!
Gotta say, I tuned into your blog earlier this afternoon and I have been obsessively reading your entire blog.
Now, I'm gonna leave oodles of compliments until you get so disgusted with me that you have me banished from bloggyland!!
You. Are. Freaking. Amazing. Wow.
Forgot to say that your Yips totally brought back sweet childhood memories of Sesame Street. And honestly, I really adore you for that.
Goooood times, goooood times. :)
