Ebony at SF-Fandom made this detailed Lord of the Rings Quilt. On her site she’s included links to the individual blocks of the quilt, as well, so you can get up close and personal with all the minor details she worked so hard at putting into this project.
I found some great bedding on Craftster recently.
Maddys Mum made her husband this lap-sized Space Invaders quilt for Christmas. The simple yet detailed square per pixel worked out great!
Another Christmas gift, Lovefrozenstars made this rockin’ (oh my, did I really just say “rockin'”?) comforter for her boyfriend with the Rock Band guitar icon. She includes some tips in her post, including how she did the image,
“To get the symbol, I brought a print out of it to a Kinko’s and had them blow it up as large as they could. I cut that image out and traced it onto white fleece that I sewed onto the front.”
Of course, both gifts were very well-received!
Be on the lookout for posts from new Geek Crafter Renee – she’ll be blogging regularly here at Geek Crafts.
We hope everyone has a happy, crafty, geeky new year!
Etsy user CarolinaPatchworks is selling this awesome Super Mario Mini-Level Quilt. Her description says it all:
In the decades since his first Sisyphian pursuit of a huge barrel-chucking gorilla, Mario’s legacy has built into mythic status. It was inevitable that some glorious day his epic battles with the infamous goombas and formidable (for turtles, at least) koopa troopas would be immortalized in that most ancient of media, the Quilt.
Julie of Quilter Geek made this quilt for her little brother’s high school graduation present. Turn it sideways and all those squares and rectangles spell out
Remember all semicolons
Document as you go
Do (Mt.) Dew, not drugs
Change passwords and underwear often
Fight for great justice
Great advice, Julie!
Craftster user astormorray made this awesome Professor Snape wallhanging for a swap. The recipient is lucky enough to get this paper-pieced quilt.
Reader Jen sent us a picture of her very first quilt. She says,
“I love old school Super Mario Brothers and I am trying to learn how to quilt. This is my first attempt. I call it my starter quilt. Super easy to make but a bit time-consuming.”
Mario looks awesome on such a grand scale. Good job, Jen!
