Two Announcements

Greetings Geek Crafters:

We’ve got two things going on here at Geek Crafts headquarters:

1. The first winner we picked to get a copy of Susan Beal’s World of Geekcraft never contacted us with their address, so we had to pick another winner. That winner is…

Craftasaurusrex!

Craftasaurusrex, please email your name and mailing address to geekcrafts@gmail.com by midnight ET on Thursday, May 19th and we’ll put your copy of World of Geekcraft in the mail right away.

2. What do you do when your graphic / web designer and her kids catch the bubonic plague? Why, you postpone your super awesome contest one more week. Enjoy our regularly scheduled programming and on Monday the 23rd, we’ll unveil our new logo and the super awesome contest. Trust me, it’ll be worth the wait!

    Have fun talking around the water cooler about the awesome Neil Gaiman-directed Doctor Who episode in the morning!

    Remembering Sarah Jane Smith

    K9 searches the heavens for his Mistress Sarah Jane SmithEven greater than the excitement over the imminent start of Series Six of Doctor Who this Saturday, is the collective sadness spreading across the Whoverse: Elisabeth Sladen, who brilliantly portrayed the much loved Doctor’s companion Sarah Jane Smith, passed away on the 19th of April, far too young at only 63 years.

    The universe has to move forward. Pain and loss, they define us as much as happiness or love. Whether it’s a world, or a relationship…everything has its time.  And everything ends.

    — Sarah Jane Smith, “School Reunion”, Doctor Who

    Wibbly Wobbly, Timey Wimey

    Wibbly Wobbly, Timey WimeyThis Doctor Who inspired cowl was designed by Ravelry user Rachel Henry.  It’s made with a Knit Picks self striping yarn, in the Time Traveler colorway, which is unfortunately no longer available on the Knit Picks site.  The colors are a pastel version of the iconic Doctor Who scarf worn by the fourth Doctor.

    The cowl pictured here is one I knit for myself.  I ordered the yarn right after seeing the pattern, and knit it for myself as a treat when I finished all my Christmas knitting.

    Exploding TARDIS Shoes

    Man I wish I could draw. Then I could try to make these for myself! cakewalkqueen made a pair of Exploding TARDIS sneakers using sharpies! She based them on a pair she saw on Etsy that feature Van Gogh’s drawing of the TARDIS exploding from the Doctor Who episode “The Pandorica Opens”. One shoe says “The pandorica will open” on the outside and the other says “Silence will fall”.

    Weeping Angels Cross Stitch

    The Weeping Angels are by far the scariest Doctor Who monster. Worse than the Daleks, worse than the Cybermen. And bunnystuffs managed to capture the creepyness. She posted this over at Crafty_Tardis, and sent it to a show in the UK. Her Weeping Angel is amazingly detailed, and the words glow in the dark. I’ve done cross stitch before, and I just don’t have the patience for something like this. The red highlights are perfect (because the angels just aren’t scary enough).I’m not sure I’d want this in the house though…one night you look up and the angel isn’t covering her face anymore…
