Computer gaming fabric?
Hello, today I met Chris Jehle at an Amish Show in Dalton, Ohio. She introduced me to this wonderful site. I am a quilter, but certainly not in the same category of some of these beautiful creations I've seen this fall at Athens, Ohio and Dalton's shows. That doesn't stop me from loving it and continuing to work at it. My dilemma, we have 2 new nephews, one is 12 and one 15, that I am making Christmas quilts. The oldest boy is no problem, he loves the out of doors. However, the youngest loves computer games and I want to make him a quilt using gaming related fabric. This has been impossible to find, Do any of you know of a source for that type fabric? Surely other quilters have grandchildren or children who would like a game themed quilt. Have any of you been successful? Thank you, LindaSuesews

Do you know what computer games he likes? We had a really cute Mario quilt done in squares that might give you some ideas. If you type in Mario quilt in the search bar at the top of this site it might come up.

I would try BearPawQuilting.com. She has many novelty fabrics and may just have what you need
