Minecraft creeper quilt
 

Good Afternoon Quilters!
I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I can get a pattern for Minecraft creeper quilt? I want to make a full size quilt! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

i googled 'minecraft creeper quilt pattern' and lots of information came up. i didn't see a pattern, though

Thanks Nancy, me either! I think I will go with a mix of greens at 6x6 block 16 across and 16 down. Not good with math or numbers, but I am figuring it will be 96x 96. Than I will add a 2 inch border! This should fit a full size bed! Any thoughts?

Here's a site where someone made one. Hope this helps!

If your blocks finish at 6" (you cut your squares at 6.5") then your math is correct. This will be sort of large for a double. A full mattress is around 54"X75". With your 2" border, your quilt will be 100X100. If the bed is 54", then you will have a 23" overhang on the sides.
You might want to consider a smaller size square.

Your quilt will measure a little smaller when you subtract seam allowances, if your blocks are 6" prior to sewing. It will measure 91.5" square with your 2" border.

I can't wait to see what your finished quilt will look like. Our son and daughter LOVE minecraft! Good luck!

Ah, good point PaperPrincess!

I will post a pix for sure orangeroom!!!

This is what I am going for! http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Handmade...item27e28eebd8
What size squares do you think these are? Any thoughts?

Looks like 14 blocks across, plus 2 borders about the same size as the blocks. 65"/16 = 4", so you would cut your squares 4.5"

My guess would be that it was made with 5" blocks - maybe a charm pack - finishing at 4 1/2" each. It is 14 across and 16 down. If you start with 6" blocks (5 1/2" finished) it will be 77" x 99" plus your border, so 81" x 103". This will give you a drop of approximately 14" on each side. You could always make a 4" border if you want more of a drop on the sides and take off one row from the bottom so that you have a drop of 14" at the foot of the bed. (Don't take one off if you are going to go over the pillow, with a tuck, with the quilt.) Ann

Oh, this is cute, I might have to borrow this idea! My niece & nephew are both obsessed with this game. Would be a cute gift for them!

I also know kids that are obsessed with Minecraft. I never thought of doing quilts for them (duh). Thanks for this thread - something else for my never-ending list!

Another question. How many total yards do you think this will take for a full size? The one in the pix posted from above website? Thanks everyone for your help!!!

Oh, I'd be interested, too. My 13 year old grandson is a huge Minecraft Creeper fan. I made him a Creeper (out of green fleece), a Steve (blue, brown, white fleece), and a ....hmmm, I've forgotten the name, but it's a villain, long armed and long legged, out of black fleece. He loves them all. I know he'd love a quilt, too.

This Mine craft is taking the world by.storm...lol....I don't get the whole idea of it....a bunch of blocks and they build stuff. ..lol

I couldn't open this page with my daughter in the room :)

I plan to use a cross stitch pattern and do simple blocks. I want to pull all of the floss colors and take them to select the fabric colors.

Those are the links i have saved.

I love the one you found on ebay.

Oh WOW Carrie in PA!!! That is a lot of work! That will be beautiful when you finish!

I'm in no rush to start it...

If i make one, there will be about 4 other kids asking too. So i keep debating what to do. I might just make a bunch of bags so everyone gets something.

Was looking at this and the 7 and 8 year old Gandsons loved it. They play this all the time. Now I have another idea to make!

Over the summer i had the idea to do this and then i was discouraged by selecting the fabrics.

Anyone know of an online shop that has that many choices of greens? I only have 2 stores where i can see the fabric before i buy it and neither one of them had more than 3 shades at one time. I didn't buy, but if i had i would still have only 6 colors maybe.
