Finally ~ A Complete Series

I managed get myself the last season of my favourite Star Trek series ~ Voyager.

It's taken a few years but I now have the complete series.

Time to go continue my Voyager-a-thon! 

I'm up to season 5 at the moment.

I'm off to grab my crochet & stick another disc on (~_o) 

Thankful Thursday

Here's what I am thankful for this week:

•  Angus made me a batch of muffins for Mother's Day (~_~) Yum!
• Rory. He has been keeping me entertained now that he knows how to get in and out of the house on his own. It's like watching a revolving door. Out the window through the door .. out the window through the door ..
•  Brodie bought Season 6 of Star Trek Voyager for me. Only one more season to go and I've got the whole set! I've started a Voyager-a-thon last weekend. ♥♥ It's my favourite Star Trek series ♥♥
• the heater - it's been getting a good work out with the cold wet weather we've been having

What are you thankful for this week?

WIP - Robin Hood

For the past few days I have been knitting a toy Robin Hood from a Jean Greenhowe pattern.

Robin Hood

I like how I get to make the boots/legs first then join them together to make the rest of the body & head. It's so much easier than one of Jeans other patterns where you make the legs & feet separately and sew them together later. Hmm maybe I can adapt the other pattern I have & make them in one piece. Something wroth trying later I guess.

I'm stuffed!

I don't think I added enough toy filling. Only time will tell when I make the bottom half of the jacket.

A different angle

Robin is meant to be around 31cm tall (around 12 inches). 

I haven't measured him but that's what the pattern said.

Robin has his face on now but he is totally armless :P

You if I made this with black pants, a light blue shirt, dark brown or black hair and pointy ears he could almost pass for Mr. Spock. Of course I would have to add eyebrows and remove the smile.

Now how geeky is that? I LOVE my Star Trek.

I think I know someone who would love a Spock toy apart from me that is :D
