Bummer about having to rip out some. Good luck with getting more done!

How fun! Any marathon viewing plans while working on the background?

I look at your map, and I think... wow, would it not be fun to just do a single block of color forever... then I realize that would bore me to death... so good luck with it :)

Looking good so far!

I'm weird and actually enjoy doing the background! It goes so fast!
About the only time I work on this is when I'm feeding my daughter so no plans for a marathon of tv watching! I have been watching through the Harry Potter series though as I feed her. I'm already onto the sixth one!

Today I went to JoAnn's and picked up more of the Zelda fabric. They just got some new Zelda prints in stock and a few weeks ago I picked up the one print and this week I picked up the other. Now to catch up on my quilt list so that I can start a Zelda quilt. :D Currently I'm working on a Bears quillow in the style of NES Tecmo Super Bowl. Then after that is another Tardis quilt... and then hopefully a Zelda quilt! I have the pattern designed. Anticipation! ~laughs~
I'm going to use the green Zelda print for the backing. That quilt will be for my brother. Not sure what I'll use the other for but I'm sure I'll find something!

Had to edit to mention that the worker cutting my fabric today was also a Zelda fan. She wanted to know if I were a fan of Windwaker or was just purchasing the fabric because it's what they have.

That it is! Unfortunately I missed out on the Majora's Mask fabric... which is why I made sure to get some of this fabric! They also had some really cool retro Donkey Kong fabric as well as Mario fabric... but they're all sold out too.

Kirby quilt I made about a year ago... finally getting around to a photo of it... I made it two-sided.

Those quilts are awesome! Makes me want to learn how to do that, my mother in law is a HUGE quilter, sometimes I think she puts more money into them than anything she gets in return. But it wouldn't be any fun otherwise.
Quilts are a ton of work, good job!!
