Okay, so you definitely couldn’t wear this Blood n Stitches zombie slip dress every day, but it’d make a great costume. You could probably whip one up quite easily yourself, if you’re so inclined. Also, how entertaining would it be if you just wore it around the house? You know, to the laundry room and to answer the door when the UPS guy comes and such…. Maybe it’s perverse, but I feel like that’d be highly amusing.
Check out these beautiful and life-like octopus purses. These purses are felted and despite the clear heft of the tentacles, there are no wires or anything in there!
If you love the look of felted items, be sure to take in Gala Filc’s gallery. She has clothes, tapestries, shoes, and other accessories.
Hi everyone! I’m Charlotte and I am a new writer for Geek Crafts. I’m a Yorkshire lass born and bred; that’s Yorkshire in England if you don’t know. I am an avid crafter that dabbles in all areas of crafting. I love baking ever since I was 4 and making biscuits with my Gran. I also enjoy sewing, making toys and clothes, as-well as embroidery and cross stitch. I also dabble in miniature painting, I am getting rather good at it if I say so myself. I am also geeky as well as a crafter. I love anything Sci-Fi and Fantasy, particularly Doctor Who, Harry Potter and Dungeons & Dragons. I have always been a geek, I used to be attached to my Game boy Colour from the moment it came out playing on Pokemon. I love pirate, fairies, stripy socks and shiny things!
Until my next post I bid you farewell!
Windell From Evil Mad Scientist posted a great tutorial for inserting LED’s into a tie ‘a la’ Kraftwerk.
I know, I KNOW, we’ve all seen light up clothes, but the simplicity of this project is just beautiful… in a manly kind of way :-)
go make one!
“Knitting may be a centuries-old craft, but the results can be quite high-tech. For example, it’s now possible to store data on a scarf. And the good news is, the construction is completely open source.”This lady here is Christine Dumoulin, and she not only created this fabulous scarf (and wrote that witty introduction) but also shared the pattern on the magical interwebs!
I can’t knit, but it’s things like this that make me really wish I could. Once you get started the possibilities are endless, binary cardigans, binary baby clothes?
You can even go all out and hide secret messages in your binary wear like Craftster user Jaberwocky, who hid lines from the Tao Te Ching in their binary scarf!
New Craftster user Loefferst (I love finding new users!) came up with this design herself for an amigurumi Zoidberg from Futurama. She was also nice enough to share the pattern, so click through to see her post if you want to make your own. I’m in love with the teeny tiny felt clothes and accessories. And for those who aren’t Futurama experts, Loefferst says:
For those of you who are confused as to why there is a blue Zoidberg there is a parallel universe episode.
