Description Ah! Guys like this are super fun to make! I really like combining different elements in this way: a bit of soft lovely felt, graphic images of gears and a barcode (designed and printed by me!) and then some actual metal gears attached too (on his little posable leggies!). The addition of the bum-flap is a bit of fun too! Cool toys for big kids!

Anyway, Lychee McGearbox is a clunkity mechanism-filled, clockwork kinda guy, who has a fondness for oil cans. If you have similar interests, you might consider adopting him !

Omg hanna I totally stumbled across this looking for inspiration and ideas for a magazine cover for a school assignment.. the cover is titled "Patchwork Mechanic" and is supposed to be steam punk related. Holy beans what are the odds. I hadn't seen this on your etsy or Facebook but its totally awesome and has given me some cool ideas.
This is jenn btw :]
Keep it up rad lady! <3

The bum flap really does pull it all together! You just have such a great imagination for all this! Did you start out making these guys from your own ideas, or did you start with other patterns? Are they handsewn? Love that gear fabric!

I have always made my dolls up, I've never made one from a pattern before (though it took a while to get any good, lots of trial and error, and they were pretty terrible in the beginning! maybe learning from patterns first would have helped! haha!)
