7 Foot Jack Skellington I made

[Astrid]

My husband used to be an avid collector of NBX stuff in 1993 but in the last few years he stopped mostly due to money .

So I thought I would cheer him up a couple of years ago and made him this huge Jack doll. He stands at 7 feet.

I had also wanted to make Sally and Oogie Boogie but then I got all tied up in these darn BJDs...I'll do it though since i enjoyed it so much. You cant really see the white stripes on his suit or tie in the pic but they are there.





materials: fabric, stuffing, card board,styrofoam

Omg! Thats awesome!

Although I don't think I'd be able to sleep if he was in the same room... ^^;; lol

OOOHHH My, that is scary, I guess he has to be careful of the fan. Is he for Halloween????

What a wonderfully huggable-looking skeleton!

Amazing! Do you take him out and about? That would turn a few heads. LOL

No I just made him for my husband

I like to keep a low profile when I go out but I had never thought of taking him our anywhere but that would be funny

Thanks! I would like to start on a sally next. I think her dress would take the longest of everything else on her unless I could find printed fabric instead of sewing each piece together.

You can get fabric you can print on at the craft store.

allows one to custom design fabric. Pricey, but might be worth it.
