Sock Jesus!

For the longest time i have wanted to make a Jesus doll, and i finally got round to it ...



I chose some tan support socks, and he turned out pretty skinny. I learned on line how to tie on a loin cloth!



My finished Sock-Saviour reminds me of the Jesus that Stanley Spencer had romping all over Cookham, in his expressive and fun paintings!

I am bursting with questions! Is this a commission or just a pet project? Where does he go now?
He's cool - are you making the disciples too......
