Tetris

I finished piecing my Tetris quilt today!  I'm trying really hard to get it into the Tetris parade on the 11th, but I'm not sure that I'm that fast at quilting.  Hopefully.

The front (sorry about the weird angle).  The pieces on the border correlate to the order that I put them on the grid (until I didn't need anymore little pieces).  So the one that's folded over (blue square) was first.  The green piece was second, ect.

Here's the back.  I played an actual Tetris game with the pieces.

I guess that, technically, the piecing isn't completed.  I put one of the sides on the back on upside-down.  The good news is that I can just take out that small section and resew.  But it's still annoying.

Check out the other Tetris tops at Happy Quilting!

  5. Great job! I'm glad you included the way it would have looked if you were actually playing. And of course the border is awesome.

  10. I like the little pieces down the side and the game on the back. I've got my top finished but can't decide about doing something extra on the back. May not have time cause I want to get it done for the parade too.
