So, for Toad I had to make up his dimensions since his character is not on the 16 by 16 grid, so I did a angles view. What does everyone think? I’m going to quilt these into throw pillows really quickly and I just can’t wait!
Man, this flu has hit me pretty hard. It’s like I’m short of breath after sewing for 5 minutes. This needs to be over quickly! In the mean time, I did make this gorgeous throw pillow! I even started work on my next commission quilt. I think it is going to be fabulous! Here are some pictures of the pillows, and later I’ll post the fabric for the new quilt.
I’ve been getting over this cold, and no that I am, it is time for some hardcore sewing! No sleep tonight, just sewing!
As on this morning I have added Twin and Full Size Mario 8 bit quilts to my Etsy Shop. Here you can order the Twin Size, and here is the Full Size. I still have to work up a sample for the queen size which will include 9 blocks instead of 6, but that might have to wait until after the holidays. I think that one will include a bob-omb, boo, and I think a question block. We’ll see. I might have to base it on what colors I have readily available in my fabric stash. (I went a little crazy with the fabric shopping recently, but I should be set for quite a while…. I hope.)
I forgot to post pictures of this, but before I forget, here it is! To go with the Mario quilt, I made a Pillow Sham out of one of the Mario clouds! I think it is just too cute! What do you think?
It really is just lovely to see a quilt you made finished! I’m so excited to mail it out to the client! I always feel so professional when I say I have to mail something to a client. Haha! Hopefully they will love it! Now I just have to finish the Pillow Sham!
I made this to go along with the Quilt! It was super easy, and everyone remembers the clouds from Mario World. In fact, everything has faces on it, so it is kind of hard to pass up! Haha. The customer wanted a pillow sham to go with the quilt for their son, so Here it is! Once I quilt it, I’ll post more pictures.
I did all of the blocks, and now I am pinning this beast of a quilt! I wish someone would have bought me this as a 8 year old! I feel like I would’ve been a much happier child! I love the way it turned out! Maybe one of these days I’ll make one for myself!
Here is the last one! The Goomba is all ready and marching on! Now to piece them all together and then make the pillow sham that matches! Hopefully I’ll finish everything by tomorrow, so it can be mailed out on Monday!
Follow the jump for pictures of all of the completed blocks! Continue reading
