This week I have been sick, sick in ways I never knew I could be. It has been a looooong week but strangely also a short one. I have slept that crazy fevered-dream sleep all week on and off through the days and nights and now I have surfaced (albeit briefly ) to find the whole week is gone, consigned to history and I missed it ! Ooops.
This is cat-bot, made a few weeks ago and somehow only just getting his turn in the blog-light.
He has a small internal wire skeleton to keep him upright,so he's really not a toy. I made him because I seem to be slightly obsessed with robots and with putting hard elements and fabric together at the moment.
He has a little workable knitting needle axle.
and he is adored !
Just what you need - to sleep the week away. Sure hope you are feeling much better for your BIG trip north this coming week!
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling heaps better Jodie! The Cat Bot is amazing - you are so crative. Love the mix of fabric and hardware.
ReplyDeleteCute Jodie, have been worrying about you. Hope you are feeling much better.
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better! I'm sure your 2 lovley bots kept you company!
ReplyDeleteLove it so much! Glad you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteOh cute as always! Love the little bots. I am glad you are getting on top of your fever induced fog and are feeling a little better.
ReplyDeleteRita
You are the Bot-tochelli of Bots!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, whimsical and cute all in one!
I hope you are feeling better!

These are the cutest things ever! So sorry to hear you have been under the weather.
ReplyDeleteThey are both absolutely wonderful. :-)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you've been a sick chick; glad to hear the big sleep has helped you get better; sometimes it's the only way. Crummy weather here anyway, specially today.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that you've been sick. I hope the robot love makes you all better.
ReplyDeleteI am almost afraid to think what idea will come out of your head after a week of fevered-dream sleep. Glad to hear your on the mend.
ReplyDeleteThe bots are too cute Jod! I hope you're feeling 100% better soon.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Jo
You poor thing. Glad that you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteI love that cat-bot, and the last picture with the robot to is simply addorable
At least now you know all that beeping and whirring you've been hearing over the last week wasn't just in your head!
ReplyDeleteHope you're reasting lots and being well looked after so you're ready for Sydney.
Hope you are feeling a whole lot better soon so you can continue making such gorgeous little creatures.
ReplyDeleteAndi :-)
cat bot has to be the cutest thing i have ever seen.
ReplyDeletethose robots are a piece of magic to cheer anyone
ReplyDeleteMy crafty senses were tingling, I just knew something was amiss and I couldn't put my finger on it. Now I know, it was because the world has been going without the craftings of Jodie while she has been sick and we have all suffered for it. Hail the cat bot. May he bring his creator great health and more hardware and fabric inspiration.
ReplyDelete:)
Get well soon! I'e missed your chatter.
ReplyDeleteOhh dear. I hope you are feeling better soon. Love the little critters - so worth a blog post. Sending healing thoughts your way.
ReplyDeleteOh yuck! That sounds like the worse kind of being poorly! Were any piggies responsible???
ReplyDeleteBut Catbot is fabtastic! So clever! Love his clock hand whiskers and working knitting needle axle - you are incredible!

Missed meeting you last week. Hope you are feeling better. Those robots are ace. I love the use of hard bits on the soft fabric.
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better. I love the robots they remind me of a show my kids used to watch Little Robots.
ReplyDeleteRobot loves Catbot! I love both of them. Sorry to hear you've been sick Jodie - I hope you've recovered enough for the week ahead! Have a terrific time.
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever.
ReplyDeleteget better soon Jodie, LOoooove the Catbot. Simply divine
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you were sick-hope you are much better now-need your energy for next weekend! LOVE LOVE LOVE catbot-you are just so clever:)
ReplyDeletegood to hear you are feeling a bit better. Loving the cat bot, he looks like he could almost be a clock, I can just see those whiskers ticking around his face.
ReplyDeleteso sorry you have been poorly.. I haven't blogged anything for ages as I haven't been crafting for ages...I got my sewing machine back but my mojo ran away or possibly was kidnapped by ninjas. it dosen't help having H around all the time.. I feel like my head is going to explode as right now he has been non stop with the "mum mum mum mum .. blah blah blah mum? mum? mum? playdough? mum mum mum"
ReplyDeletep.s. I have been designing something in my head for those lovely scraps you sent me and working on a vintage book page illustration for you.. but its not perfect yet *is fussy*. the Boy is in holiday club tuesday so I'm hoping to be left alone to craft and write in peace..
oh how gorgeous...
ReplyDeleteI sure this little guy could cheer anyone up...
fantastic work...
hope you are over the lurgy real soon...as I really want to see more of these guys...
Jod - hoping you are on the road to recovery...and the robots are adorable!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you were sick! Hope you are now truly better. CatBot it really cute- I love his red whiskers!
ReplyDeleteRest up and get well for craft school camp next weekend. Don't bring Catbot or I may just have to steal him.
ReplyDeletexxn
He's terrific. I love that he has a wire skeleton.
ReplyDeleteI can see why he is adored! What a cute little fella and so beautifully made. I hope you are feeling better soon, it's horrible being sick isn't it? xoxo
ReplyDeleteI. LOVE. CATBOT.
ReplyDeleteI. HATE. FLU.
Oh, TOO good.
ReplyDeletePerhaps new ideas came out of your feverish sleep? So sorry you've been ill. Not fun! Cat-bot is CUTE!!! Will there be a mouse-bot for him to chase?
ReplyDeleteYikes! Glad you had a long sleep, not so glad to hear you were ill. Poor you. I suppose the idea of long sleeps was what gave you the idea of the cat! The Cat-bot is lovely, but won't the robot want a dog-bot to keep the cat-bot in order?!
ReplyDeleteEven in this part of the world we were hearing that the hateful flu had paid a visit to Australia. How frustrating to lose a week just when you're so busy. I hope someone else picked up the ball in the costume department. So glad you're better, and Mr. Cat bot is terrific. :>}
ReplyDeleteCatbot is the cutest ... very whimsical and just purrfect!
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling heaps better. Good luck later this week!
