Historical Figures Bowling Pins
I’m not sure why, but crafts in the likeness of historical figures really crack me up and these bowling pins from Craftster user charmingflaws are no exception. With plaster molds, slip casting, paint and sewing, she created Ben Franklin, Marie Antoinette, Pocahontas, Ivan the Terrible, Caesar, Cleopatra and Elizabeth I. I would love to see these in person!

Space Invaders Quilt and Rock Band Comforter
I found some great bedding on Craftster recently.
Maddys Mum made her husband this lap-sized Space Invaders quilt for Christmas. The simple yet detailed square per pixel worked out great!
Another Christmas gift, Lovefrozenstars made this rockin’ (oh my, did I really just say “rockin'”?) comforter for her boyfriend with the Rock Band guitar icon. She includes some tips in her post, including how she did the image,
“To get the symbol, I brought a print out of it to a Kinko’s and had them blow it up as large as they could. I cut that image out and traced it onto white fleece that I sewed onto the front.”
Of course, both gifts were very well-received!
Be on the lookout for posts from new Geek Crafter Renee – she’ll be blogging regularly here at Geek Crafts.
We hope everyone has a happy, crafty, geeky new year!
