Happy Birthday Pikelet Workshop!

That's right! I'm working on some new things.
One of my lovely customers requested a robot and I've been meaning to do one for AGES. Today the pattern was completed and I'll cut him out over the weekend. Will certainly keep you posted, pretty sure there'll be a martian buddy and maybe even an astronaut to follow...
My head has been FULL of a cute and geeky "tween" version of the Poppets for some time now. I decided now is as good a time as any to finally get them out of my head and onto fabric this week and I'm very excited. I think they look super cute and once they're completed I expect they'll spend their days dreaming up graphic novels, listening to alternative pop and gaming online with their pals.
What do you think so far?









Here's the thing, these kids need names. So I'm hoping you'll leave a comment below with your suggestions.

If you do you'll go into the draw to WIN THEM BOTH!

That's right. Two Poppets (valued at $65) to the lucky winner who comes up with some groovy names for the new kids on the block. I just can't possibly split them up.
But, I hear you ask, why exactly have I lost my mind and decided to give them away?!
Because it's pikelet workshop's THIRD birthday in May! Happy little dance indeed.

Simply leave a comment below with your ideas, one entry per person and I will draw the winner randomly.
The competition is open internationally and I will need your EMAIL address to let you know you've won.

Have an awesome weekend, am hoping to resume more normal blog-posting soon.


Good luck! I'll draw the winner on May 1st...

    Oh I had so many but I like Matthew and Matilda, or Matt and Tilly for short (although I still can't get Mavis and Mouse out of my head either lol)! I love all your poppets, and these are so cute too, not sure I'd share with my miss 9 at all ;)
