Love Potion Number Nine

The Ninth Doctor

The Ninth Doctor, designed by Aalia Zaman, stitched by me!

As the saying goes, you never forget your first doctor.

The Ninth Doctor was my first Doctor. I knew nothing, absolutely NOTHING about Doctor Who. My hubby has been a fan since he was a kid. He remembers back many, many Doctors. I was a newbie. And then came Nine. I’ve been hooked ever since!

The Ninth Doctor was designed for the Doctor Who Stitch Along over on Fandom In Stitches by the very talented stitching guru, Aalia Zaman. I love how she captures his personality with just a few stitches. Truly fantastic!

My Doctors so far. Designers are noted below.

Doctor Tease

Last Stitch teaser!

These are my last few stitches in the Doctor Who Stitch Along. One of the best parts of being a designer on a project like this is getting to see all the wonderful designs before the Stitch Along ever started.

Oh my goodness, I can’t wait to show you all my blocks when the designs have all been revealed! Just four more weeks…

Aalia's Hufflepuff Themed Block

As a random aside, I HAVE to share this gorgeous quilt block made by Kristel incorporating my Fleur-de-li pattern. It’s Hufflepuff themed…and brilliant! The very lucky Aalia was the recipient of this gorgeous block.

Stitch, Stitch, Stitching All Summer Long!

The Eighth Doctor

I’m still happily stitching along on the Doctor Who Stitch Along. There are just a few more designs left, one of which will be mine. So much Doctory goodness is still coming, so keep an eye on Fandom In Stitches!

The Eighth Doctor was designed by TTMT Alum doxmuffinxc, aka, Jordan. I love the smile and wavy hair. Just…perfect. You can find the post about Eight here.

Project of Doom Mini

This lovely quilt top will be donated to The Linus Connection. Eight of the Project of Doom squares were donated for the PoD Charity project over on Fandom In Stitches.

The center block, below, was pieced by me using some funky Alexander Henry toile shared by my good friend Cat. She wanted to make a block, but just flat out doesn’t have time (two toddlers, a baby on the way and a full time engineer!), so I made it instead. 🙂

Project of Doom - Week 27 pattern

Today, I’m helping my 15 year old create a cloak for a costume he’s wearing later this week. He was doing some of his own sewing yesterday, but I’ve promised not to post pictures. Ah, teenagers!
