Take note, Whovians: the 50^th anniversary of Doctor Who is fast approaching. To help pass the time (get it?!) as we count down to this momentous occasion—and to help welcome the Twelfth Doctor—I've rounded up some inspired, adorable, and occasionally incredibly geeky Doctor Who cross-stitch ideas. So pick a pattern, grab your supplies, and follow me as we allons-y through time and space, one stitch at a time.

Happy November, Quirk fans!

In addition to our fabulous Quirk Perks discounts this month (which include Geek Wisdom and The Cookiepedia), we're launching a month of fabulous giveaways!

That's right. An entire month. 

We debated in the Quirk HQ for hours, trying to come up with the dates and the name for this fantastic giveaway. Would we do it in October? Would it be a single day (Quirkoween) or a month long thing (Quirktober)? What about December? Why not 12 Days of Quirkmas? Maybe something on New Year's Eve? Happy Quirk Year? 

And then it happened. Brett Cohen stood up and shouted "QUIRKSGIVING!" The reaction went something like this:

Okay, maybe not exactly like that (there were only five of us in the conference room), but still. #Quirksgiving is a thing, and we want to give you the chance to win some fun prizes through the month of November. Just follow the directions for each day, and be sure to use the hashtag #Quirksgiving when doing so. We'll pick winners every morning. 

Good luck, and have fun!
