Flashman cuffs & mask


a7

I wanted to treat Mohammad, as he got certificate in school for having “Excellent Knowledge about Islam”… He got his certificate in assembly and now it was our turn… he expected a BIG treat from US…. (trust me these cuffs were only the beginning...)

So I googled and searched on Pinterest & Etsy and got many interesting ideas for boys and planned to make these super hero cuffs.


He loved it…. he was jumping through out the time I was stitching it, whenever I asked him to try the cuff on for size, I got it back after half an hour :)…. He is a hugeeeeee super hero fan…

Used a black felt piece for backing.
