Isn't she cute?


So stylin' with her cute mary janes and coordinating limbs.


Say, would you like to be able to make a robot just like her? Cause you're in luck. ;)


Chris from Pickup Some Creativity created the pattern that I used for "Mommy the Robot"-a Build your Own Robot pattern. Cool, right? You can purchase it here or here. 


Here are some of her other adorable examples!

She would also like to give away 3 copies to three lucky readers!

To enter:

Please also leave your email address in your comment. You can write it out like so if you prefer: craftinessisnotoptional(at)gmail(dot)com. International entries are welcome!

Giveaway will be open until Sunday night, March 20th. 

Good Luck!

Love those...so cute...I would totally make one for each of my Little Men, after all if I only made one they would all fight over it. They are SO cute.

CraftyKatt said...

awesome, I'd make on for my friends baby girl. She's all about handmade and organic things at the moment, so I get new missions from time to time to make. She hasn't asked for a robot yet, but I'm sure it would be an awesome surprise :)

Jennifer Gardner said...

Hehe! Mommy the robot...I think my kids would need to name theirs that too. These are so cute, and different from the normal stuffed animal or dollie. Thanks for the giveaway. jennifer(dot)gardner(at)hotmail(dot)com

Sarah said...

amy said...

How fun! He's (or she's) adorable. I have two young boys who would get a kick out of a new little robot friend. I think I would use some bright aqua, orange, lime, or yellow to make him really colorful. Thanks!

Keep up the great work, you are very inspiring.

Jaime @ Our Journey said...

Those are ADORABLE! My 3 year-old is going through a complete robot phase! We spend part of each day acting/talking/walking like robots together. :o) I would make one for him first, followed by a robot mommy and robot daddy since he likes everyone in the house to be represented!

Thanks for hosting the giveaway!

RebKnitz said...

I love the heart. Too, too precious!

Lacy said...

I would definitely make one for my future baby's room--in the midst of collecting robot and space material right now for quilts, so this would be perfect!

So-Sew Me said...

My 5 year old son is a robot fanatic. He also complains this time of year that I don't sew enough for him (always his little sister, I love spring dresses) so this would be extra special to him.

Jennifer said...

I would have to make one for my youngest because she cracks me up running around the house saying "I am a robot" in a monotone voice all the time. LOL

Cherval said...

Wow, lovely robot! And I like the name your daughter picked, haha.
I would love to make a robot for my little nephew, but to be honest... I want one for myself too.

SO cute! I would make one for my new nephew but as my husband seems to get jealous that I never make HIM any toys I guess I'd make one for him, too.

ModernDayMama said...

Well, I couldn't stop at one, I'd have to make two for each of my boys. And maybe one for my husband too, he's such a techno nerd! These are really cute!

Amanda said...

way cute. I'd make one for my son!

If I were a robot I'd probably end up being Rosie from the Jetsons. My son had a friend over yesterday and they spilled some chips and he told his friend Don't worry my mom will clean it up. She likes to clean things up.

Uhhhh. No. I don't like to. I have to. :)
