Zombie Potato

Anthropomorphic food amuses me to no end, and this zombie potato from Craftster Kitty Ballistic is no exception. Sewn of felt with embroidered details, she says,

“Nathan is a bit of an outcast amongst his spuddy pals. They’re not really worried that he’s going to eat their brains on account of the fact that A) he doesn’t have a mouth and B) they’re tubers, they don’t have brains. They don’t even mind his unusual skin tone, although there have been rumours that his ‘scar’ was drawn on with felt tipped pen. Nathan ignores their comments, he knows his moment in the spotlight will come. He’s just waiting for his big break – a starring role in “Dawn of the Vegetable Rack”.”

Yes, a zombie potato named Nathan. I love this. Kitty also makes mere mortal potatoes, in case you’re not into the current zombie craze.

Gingerbread Cthulu Ornament

Okay, I know we’re a bit past gingerbread season, but I saw this in the Geek Crafts Flickr Pool tonight and it cracked me up. And when something cracks me up, I feel the need to share it with all you lovely readers. Flickr user ckrolczyk made a bunch of mutant gingerbread man ornaments out of felt, including the growing-in-popularity Cthulu.

Bella’s Mittens from Twilight

Bella's Mittens from Twilight

All the vampire lovin’ crafters really picked up on Bella’s mittens in Twilight, including Craftster user Ruby Copperhead. She knit this pair for a swap. Click through to see the other side – she embroidered “Vampires Suck” in red thread. I do love a bad pun :)
