Etsy is an ebay style site that sells crafts and artisan creations. If you want soap with Guinness in it, jewelery containing every bead known to man, stunning photos made into cards.. well this is the place to look. The site is very attractively done and quirkiness abounds. Yes it is time to search etsy for Star Trek. Shockingly only two pages come up and some of those listings are spurious (as opposed to 427 pages for soap). But it is in just these out of the way places dedicated to non-Trek things where some really interesting Trek stuff lurks.. or so I hope.
The "I miss Data" shirt is cute. I don't miss him (he is a toaster, so shoot me) but it's cute for those that do. And I DO miss Enterprise.. and Kirk.. and Tucker until I read The Good That Men Do.
However this item is an absolute work of art. Since it is one of a kind and likely to vanish once bought I reproduce its fabness below.
Star Trek Voyager Barge of the Dead Bag
Fabulous!
Here is the description given by the bag artist:
"This bag is constructed from a spread from an issue of Star Trek Communicator magazine, a National Geographic map of Orion's Nebula and scrapbook paper, with fusible interfacing, laminate, embroidery floss, 3-d craft paint, wire, and beads.
The images are from the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Barge of the Dead" and feature B'Elanna Torres in rarely adorned Klingon garb. Details are picked out in embroidery and craft paint.
Fusible interfacing was applied to all pieces and lining pieces in order to provide flexibility and strength and the outside of the bag has been laminated for durability and a small measure of water-proofing.
The lining pieces were machine basted to the outside pieces. However, the bag was pieced together by hand with red embroidery floss.
The dimensions are 8.5" x 10 7/8" x 3" (not including handles)"
