Oooh… I want :-)

For those out there who find their gaming interests intersecting with quilting, here is a bit more info on the project.  Please bear in mind that I know next to nothing about quilting.  My mother and grandmother are the experts.

Anyway, this project was done using applique (I think I’ve spelled that right) for the major pieces.  There is some type of backing used to make the piece a bit stiffer since it is intended to function as a wall hanging.  There is actually a small sleeve at the top of the board on the back for a dowel to hang it.

Most of the fabrics for the main sections of the board are a batik print which matched the style of the original game quite well.

If anyone is interested in more detail, let me know and I’ll see if I can pass some along.  Now I need to see if I can get my mother to make another one for my game room - Tom you’ll have to get in line.

Also, my mother has done a quilted wall hanging of a Settlers board.  I’d be happy to send pictures those pictures along to Eric as well if people wanted to see them.

Thanks Craig, It looks great.  Quilters have the same problem we have.  There is always that next pattern to buy and of course all quilters have a huge fabric stash of material.  My wife has a walk-in closet just filled with drawers of fabric sorted by colors.  Pass on a big way to go to your Mom and Grandmother.
