“Each Cotton Monster is a little (or big) work of art made from recycled clothing and linens without a pattern, so no two will ever be exactly alike. In fact I make an attempt to make each cotton monster as different as possible, carefully picking the materials that go into making each one and intuitively sewing all their parts. Though much care is taken in making each unique creature sturdy, Cotton Monsters should be considered soft sculptures intended for adults, not toys! I am just an artist making art that I love to make; I could not possibly keep up with the testing and standards of toy companies.”
