Doctor, can you sonic me?
OH my! I have long been a big fan of AprilDraven’s work, especially her beautiful hats, but this piece just makes me all sorts of happy! She has provided both a chart and pattern on Craftster.
If you are looking to craft a holiday gift for a Doctor fan, this could be just the thing.
Also check out her shop on etsy April Draven Designs for more yummy crochet goodness!
Instructables contributor TardisTrekkie shows us how to modify a messenger bag to inlude a glowing panel in this tutorial.
“If you’re looking for the ultimate bag to show your geek pride, you’ve come to the right place! In this instructable, I’ll give you step-by-step instructions on how to make an awesome bag that will literally have people stopping you on the street to ask where you got it!”
Here’s one from me!! (Geeky Sweetheart)
I had the utter JOY of participating in the Star Wars OTT (One Tiny Thing) swap on Craftster. This is what I sent out… It’s a circular embroidery case, which is large enough to accommodate a 6″ embroidery hoop, as well as supplies in its integrated needle-book and inner pocket, have a look!
Of course, I ended up making one for myself as well, I LOVE it! I took it to a hospital appointment where I had to hang around in the waiting room for 2 hours, I was sat there stitching away happily, could have stayed there ALL day (but glad I didn’t have to!)
The image on the front of the case there is by DeviantArt user Jasonpal, you should completely check out his gallery, there are all sorts of geeky goodies in there. Inkjet Iron on transfer paper is a brilliant thing! … The speech bubbles were my idea though!
Probably worth mentioning quickly about what I recieved on the swap from my fantastic partner SilentBlair. It was only the cutest little Wampa amigurumi for my little geek-to-be (2 months and counting til (s)he makes his/her grand entrance into the world!) Here he is next to my 1929 Singer hand-crank sewing machine and my baby Yoda hat I got from The Green Hedgehog on Etsy.
ANYHOW – I promised you a tutorial, and here it is. Go forth and make circular travel embroidery cases, emblazon them with your best geeky quotes and images, and dont forget to let us know about anything you make using the ‘submit a geekcraft’ link.
OOh and while I’m on the topic of tutorials, I’ve finally got my act together and organised a tutorials section on my blog. Now you have direct links to all the tutorials I’ve ever published, including my “Wretched Hive of Scum and Villiany” embroidery pattern and my Supergirl Costume.
Who just got a new MacBook?! That’s right…. this girl!!! Naturally, that means it is time to outfit my new toy with decals, and cases, and accessories (oh my!) So strolling the internets for new things to buy, I found this laptop bag made out of floppy disks. A-mazing! Although I don’t know how heavy or bulky it is to carry about, it sure looks really awesome… Great work Stanislav
Just for the record, the disks in this case total 60.48MB :)

I don’t know about you but I for one, loved Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. It was all kinds of nerd love.
I also had a soft spot for Ramona, possibly because her hair changed colour every other scene.
What I loved best about her though was her totally awesome bag.
Well, you and I can have this bag now! That’s right!
Buy this bag.

Yea! More monsters! This monster bag if from Craftster averyg. She says, “Once upon a time, almost one year ago, I made a monster bag. This was no ordinary monster bag, as this monster bag was a very special boy. This monster bag was HUGE- the hugest monster bag around… How huge you may ask? SO huge that he could easily gobble up 3 laptops, a couple textbooks AND still be hungry…”
