Crochet and Doctor Who

This past month has brought me joy (my first craft show of the year) and sorrow (my faithful car was totaled). And in the middle of it I've been crocheting like crazy to keep up with the demand of the amigurumi plushie keychains and having a ball.

So many people have stopped by looking and asking. There's always a new way of looking at amigurumi.  I've has requests for different animals. And requests for cat toys. And requests for larger plushie toys. I promise, as time allows I'm investigating how to expand and add new lines.

In the meantime I wanted to share with you my weekend. It was a Doctor Who weekend. You know how I love The Doctor. These are the things I have gleaned from the marathon.

1. Be at the opening ceremony torch lighting at the 2012 Olympics. The Doctor will be a torch carrier.

2. Cybermen can have fun.


3. Rogue Klingons can find jobs working for Daleks.


4. A verbal smackdown between the Daleks and Cybermen can be funny!


5. Rose Tyler (Billie Piper) can't sing. Why do I say that? Because I want to! lol!


I hope you've enjoyed these as much as I have!

The Poll is Closed

Heeeeere's Barry!
Barry is the Nite Howl Owl on the Guild’s own radio station from 1:00 pm to 5:00 am weeknights. His show highlights blue legends from the early 20th century. Barry is also plays upright bass in the quartet, Stoned Blue, a local favorite. “Gotta pay your dues if you want to play the blues. Music is my life, my livelihood, my mistress of the soul. When I’m with her my problems disappear. Each note is sweet release from all the hassles”, say Barry.

I'm not getting him online until Sunday night at the earliest. Tomorrow is a big family day. Thanks to EVERYONE who commented here and on facebook.

What IS his name?!?!?

I can't decide and he's not telling. He's listening to the sounds of his mind instead.

So I'm asking you, my followers to tell me which story to go with? You'll find the poll on the left side of the page at the top. Read both stories and tell me which you'd like to see used in my shop.

Marley

Marley is one cool dude. His favorite way to spend his time is chilling at home eating macaroni and cheese. There, he and his friends socialize and discuss the fundamentals of carpentry and carving apples. Marley loves his movies, too, with the ability to quote the memorable scenes. But don’t get him started on Monty Python’s Holy Grail because you’ll have a full reenactment of the movie –unless you’re into that too.



Thank you and remember to vote!  If you like to see all of the owls, they are already on Picasa and Flickr. Plus you can purchase in my Etsy and Artfire shop.
