I am currently working a skateboard quilt for one of my 9 year old twin grandsons. The other told me he would like a video game controller quilt. Yikes, I don't even have that type of game to even know what they look like. Somewhere I thought I saw a Super Mario quilt, bot sure it is on this board. Can any one help with a pattern that might fit a 9 year old?

This link isn't from this forum, but a lady made several of the Mario characters.

I have seen several novelty print fabrics with electronic/computer themes on them, like circuit board patterns, computer screens and keyboards, electrical cords and plugs etc. that perhaps you can find to add into whatever pattern you decide upon.

That's a site for a controller applique.

You can also try google.com and type in game controller quilt. It will give you a lot of images and ideas.

I would find out what game system he has and what color the controller is. Their mom can snap a quick photo of it. Controllers are very different for each system

Thanks so much for the web address. I printed out all of the pdf pattern pieces. I'm wondering if I can enlarge maybe just Super Mario to a much larger square and make it still look like him. Maybe worth a shot.
