Tutorial Tuesday - Weeping Angel Cosplay

Crossposted on Geekcrafts.com

I know, I know, poor readers, I keep bombarding you with scary, scary angels.

The truth is I'm SO excited about the new series of DW coming soon... I seem to have developed a bit of an obsession...
This cosplay has been on the Internet for a while but I completely missed it the first time round and recently re-discovered it after reading the blog post about  10littlebullets' awesome interpretation of this weeping angel cosplay.

The original version (pictured, right) was created and conceived by penwiper337 who has created an amazingly detailed tutorial which you can see on the crafty tardis livejournal group here
Look carefully at that photo, yup, that's a weeping angel strangling Jewel Staite!! (there's a whole lotta AWESOME in that picture!)-  (c) Ray Radlein

Adorable Tardis Cross Stitch

I like the bit when someone says it's bigger on the inside! I always look forward to that.

This is the creation of Crafty TARDIS/livejournal member Xcarex. I love it.
If you're not plugged into Crafty TARDIS you should be! I love the charming honesty of this cross stitch, the way the TARDIS seems to be shining with all those dotted lines, and the care and attention taken over the different shades of blue.

EMBROIDERY STAND FTW!!

OMGOSH!

Me and Alex went down Aylesbury town this afternoon to do the charity shop run and I got these beauties:

What you're seeing is a 12" embroidery hoop mounted on an embroidery stand, for 2 handed stitching.
What? there seems to be a big balack blob on my work? well that's because what I'm embroidering is a SECRET sillyface! I'm crafting for the craftster Doctor Who swap at the moment and I don't want to spoil my partner's surprise!

lookee more!

ok, a couple of sneek peeks:
