Spaceboy & Robot
Why do robots have to be so hard? All cold and metal and beepy. And ever tried to cuddle up to a plastic Buzz Lightyear for a napper? We think space toys should be squishy and lovable and wrapped up under the tree this year. Put-together Book #2 Spaceboy and Robot is in the shop now for the low low, stocking stuffing price of only $10!
12 page booklet includes full size pattern pieces, complete instructions and 6 additional control panel embellishment options (embroidered for babies and bedazzled for older kids).

NEVER have I so happily pushed the "pay now" button at paypal. Can't wait to get lost in spaceboys! Thanks!

Hillary, not only are your designs fantastic, but the pattern covers are as well. You've been working hard and it shows. The patterns themselves would make great presents for sewing mamas.

I love the look of the books! they are just so great. spaceboy is still a big favorite around here. CJ was pretty sad when he couldn't come in the bath so maybe I will have to make a bathable one! as I told you before, it is so great to see something to make for boys. big and little. my hubby has one on his desk now!

Oh! I just ordered your other pattern book last night, I have to go get this one now too. Can't wait!

Looking good! Happy you made the robot booklet first! Waiting near the mailbox ... Just beam it my way! ;-)

Henry, my 18-month old, just pulled himself up to the computer, pointed at the robot & said "WHOA!!!" then he started to sign "more, more". Yes, that means I just purchased the pattern.
The question should not be "Why do robots have to be so hard?" it should be "Why do these robots have to be so stinking cute?"
YOU ARE AMAZING!!

thank you!

So happy...I missed the first printing with your first book and wanted to make sure it wouldn't happen this time. The spaceboy will be my nephew's Xmas gift. He loved his bear from the first pattern book.

Yippee!!! Click, click, click... and this baby is mine!

By the way, I see you got one of your ornaments made for your own tree. So cute. I saw your issue (yes, "your" issue!) of Cutting Edge at the store today and grabbed it up to flip to your article right there in the aisle, with my ice cream melting. Ah, the sacrifices we make. It looked great.
Posted by: Amy | Nov 27, 2006 2:25:28 PM
WOW! Everything looks SO great.

Just ordered my pattern - so exciting. My 8 year old son is interested in learning to sew and LOVES all things robotic, so you have made me a very happy mama!

They are wonderful robots. You're right, why on earth shouldn't robots be fit for a cuddle? And such a good price. Thank you so much.
Hello by the way!
