Thanks for the compliment, but you couldn't pay me enough to make another! (I'm not sure if you know much about quilting, but as I'm in the UK, the cost of the materials alone were around $300.)

Thank you so much SlightyOffQuilter and Knitette. My son has to go to many doctors appointments in the upcoming months. He is usually tired after and always puts a blanket in the car for the ride home. I was looking for something I could make to bring him a little joy. This is perfect! He loves Minecraft. Now, I just have to collect some fabrics.
Some of you might look at this and think, "What on earth is that?" I know I would have a few months ago!
Minecraft, for the uninitiated, is computer game - a bit like 3D Lego that my DGS loves. DD thought I could make a quilt as it's "all squares" (non quilter, lol).
Not so easy - as you will see on my previous post here and SlightyOffQuilter responded to my plea by creating a pattern on her EQ7.
It was a challenge, I can tell you, particularly the two that have 256 1" squares............ You should be able to spot the blocks I made first as the points become more 'off', the longer I did it and the more I lost the will to live, lol.
Anyway - here it is. Thanks for looking!

I found this forum when I found this quilt on Pinterest and thought my little boy would LOVE it! THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE PATTERN! This is the first quilt that I've made for years and my points are no where near perfect but I don't think my 5 year old will notice or care 
I can't wait til his June B-day! My MIL hand quilted this, it just needs the binding now.
