Zelda Commission 5: About A Third Of The Way Done

I did it! I hit my goal for the night. I was up late doing this, but it was so worth it. Now that it is out of the way I won’t be thinking about it at work. Now that it is bright and early I’m going to go and get ready for work. I love the way the blues blend in the background. At first I thought my blues all had a little too much contrast, but they all blended quite nicely. The golds blended was too. Tonight after work I should be able to get the next third pieced, but we’ll see how tired I am.

Zelda Commission 5: Some Progress Was Made

I made a little headway today. I was at work all day, and then came home and Skyped with my cousin and my nephew… they are too cute! Anyways. I started to piece this out again, and I’m slowly adding to it. Hopefully I will finish the piecing on this third tonight. I start my new job tomorrow so I doubt I’ll have time tomorrow. Wish me luck tonight!

Zelda Commission 5: Started To Piece It

It’s looking lovely! I’ve been kind of working all day, but to be honest, I’ve also been watching a lot of BBC. My goodness I love some British people! They make amazing TV! Hit and Miss… truly amazing! Not for all people to watch, but it’s kind of awesome! Anyways, back to the quilt. I’ve been piecing the quilt on and off all day. I love the way the blue blends together. At first, I was a bit worried that the blues were all too different, but I like the way it ended up looking. Hopefully I’ll have at least a third of the top pieced tonight, but I won’t hold my breath.

Queen Zelda Commission: Getting Started

Okay, so I’ve had to pack up Dual Star, because I’ve gotten a new commission. It’s going to be a queen size Zelda quilt. On the order form he selected blue, so here are the shades of blue for the background. I have everything going from a medium blue to navy. I think it will all blend very well! The bird and the Triforce are going to be gold, and I think it will contrast nicely against the blue. Wish me luck!

Quilts Of Nerd-dom

So, as some of my readers have noticed, I’ve been doing a lot of video game themed items this past week. Well, the truth is…. I’m working on a line of quilts and quilt designs called “Quilts of Nerd-dom”. So far… I have done a few Zelda Quilts, a Mario Themed Quilt, and a I’m working currently on a Final Fantasy Art Pop themed Quilt. My goal is that at the end of February to have at least 6 of these Nerd-dom themed quilt tops made, and the patterns available. That is the goal anyways. The thing that I need from my readers is… What should I do next? You tell me what you want!

 

 

Zelda Quilts Of The Past 6 Months

I’ve been working on this Quilts of Nerd-dom thing and I just wanted to post some pictures of all of the Zelda Quilts I have made over the past 6 months! I think I made some pretty awesome ones, and I’m looking forward to making more in the next few months as well!

My Zelda Quilt: I Finished Quilting The Background

After a few setbacks from being sick, I have managed to finish the background quilting. I decided to go with purple thread, and to do a medium stipple. I’m still thinking about adding some brown stippling on top of it, just to add some texture and dimension, but I might just call it a day at purple! I’ve still got to do the stitching for the bird and I’m going to use a turquoise thread for that! Hopefully I’ll finish that tonight, but for now I’m off to go and shovel some snow! Wish me luck!

My Zelda Quilt: Started The Quilting

It only took me a couple days and a few dozen cups of tea, but I have started to quilt this beautiful masterpiece. I cannot wait until I put the binding on, wash it, and snuggle up under it. This will be the first large quilt I have made for myself. The 4ths Queen that I have quilted, and the 9th Queen sized top I had made. I’m really excited for it to be done! Hopefully I’ll finish the quilting on the background tonight, and then I’ll do the turquoise bird and triforces tomorrow and bind it!

Wish me luck!
