Sprite Stitch Board!

This is a Tetris quilt I made for my friend. On facebook, I posted a picture of a cross stitch bookmark that showed something similar, said I was thinking about it as a quilt idea, and my friend said "OMG, I need this quilt!!" So I just surprised him with it today! I designed it myself and it only took 2 tries to get the completely filled in grid. I love how it came out.

I love it! I am hoping to do a similar quilt for my MIL one day, just haven't gotten the ambition yet. lol

It wasn't too difficult to do, since it was just squares. I saw other ones online that had multiple colors in each block to look more 3-D but that wasn't happening. Feel free to use my grid when you do get the ambition

Hooo wow, so true (lol) it looks great !!! Your friend is so lucky

Awesome! I too have this on my long list of items to do. I really like the 3D one but it does seem like way too much work!

This got a good laugh out of me.

I love the whole thing - like your other quilts that I've seen here, it really is something else, and the nicely-matching quilting pattern is really nice icing on the cake.

EDIT: That's odd. A completely innocuous word in my post (a synonym for "appropriate"/"matching") was censored, so I've had to change my wording slightly.

I love this quilt

When the board software got updated, a word censoring tool was in it. Some of the words on the censor list are silly (some made me giggle, though!)
If you're being censored while being non-offensive, that's not right. What was your word? Try putting hyphens in it or something

Sorry to topic hijack!

It was fit+ting (minus the plus, of course). As you can see, it's not at all hyphen-friendly.

Sorry to topic hijack!

Same here - sorry about that!

Thank you so much. I'm glad it got a laugh I showed it to one friend who didn't get it... it made me

That layout is awesome. I so have to use it for my 3D patterns.

Speaking of, if you ever do decide to do one, I can give you the methods for the blocks. Don't mind sharing with another awesome quilter.
