Robots are Taking Over

A lot of folks have been commenting that the NTA show in Orlando had lots and lots of canvases featuring llamas and flamingos. That's true, but what really caught my eye were all the robots!

Besides Raymond Crawford's robots,

Kathy Schenkel had a Christmas robot mini sock,

Needlepoint Inc. has a somewhat scary one,

Actually, they have a lot of them!  I like the red one.

Waterweave has Robot Greetings, which makes me smile.

Pepita has a cute one with a heart beat monitor.

You can even get a robot in a beginner's kit.

Or a more advanced kit you can personalize with a name.

This stitcher created an original design so she could incorporate LED lights into the robot.
