I adore your stitchy, rockin’, geeky, fun, playful, modern, nostalgic, joyful, useful, arty farty freakin awesome projects and teaching! Rock on, the quilting world is a better place because of you! 🤘
Rob I have been trying to finish a tetris quilt for my son in law for 4 years!!! My original idea was to make it as a "rag quilt" but really thought that was a bad idea. So I stopped working on it and you has inspired me to get it done using some of your methods. All of the blocks are 10" x 10" cut and machine cross stitched as a rag quilt is done. Although I won't change what I have completed thus far, your video has given me many ideas on how I can complete my tetris quilt. I am determined to get this quilt done for Christmas 2019. Better late than never! And I am looking forward to using the method you demo in this video.
I love this. It's hard to believe that the boom box is now an "antique". You could use this to make anything look pixelated. You've given my imagination a lot to think about. Thanks for this technique and another great video, Rob. I saw a video of the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show and saw you there. I'd love to go someday!
My mom and I did this recently! We made Sans from Undertale for my middle daughter for Christmas, but didn't know about that 2" grid interfacing, so we made our own.... Next project is a Minecraft quilt for my son. :)
I love pixel quilts! A while back I made a pixel Princess Leia for a Star Wars fan and now I am doing a Minecraft quilt for a sweet young guy that loves to play. Another great source for patterns is Cross Stitch, since they are designed the same way.
I have been wanting to make a couple of pixel quilts n this is perfect. Makes this project so easy. I love your retro stuff, such as the Walkman n boom box....
Love love love this. I had several boom boxes over the years...also cassette players. Lol great quilts!! Given me plenty of ideas to make some pixelated Mario characters for my kids...lol.
I've been stalling on making a Mario Bros. quilt because I haven't wanted to mark out all of those grids on the interfacing. Now you tell me I can buy it pre-gridded? I guess that's the kick in the butt that I needed to get started!
great tutorial thank you. i have done this technique before it is great fun i do my own grid as i didnt have grid interfacing . i cheated when i did areas of the same colours and i cut strips and didnt bother sub cutting into tiny squares. so for example i needed 5 white next to each other ~~~~~ i say they were 2 in i added 5 x2 equals 10 and just cut a 10 in strip . then sew as above.
Love your videos! Would you create a tutorial for using a picture to create a quilt pattern that's not pixelated? For example, taking a picture of my dog or my flower garden, then creating a quilt pattern from those pictures.
I've never bought or downloaded an online pattern, so excuse my ignorance, but where do I find that paper he showed in the beginning with the pattern for the walkman on it?
Great quilt Rob! But would have loved to see a close up of the last sewing part. It was a little too fast. I have one of those big boom boxes in my wood shop :-) still works great! Lol
Wish I had seen this earlier I have just completed Minecraft quilt with 27 blocks with 64 1” squares in each block it was a nightmare. As I stitched every piece.
This is perfect for my oldest son that had a boom box because he was born in 1974. I’m sorry but I still don’t know how you got the small squares of fabric.
Hey no fair that is cheating. You are supposed to sew each square to the next.!!! Wish you had told me this before I sewed 600 2.5" squares together!!!
Idk this way seems harder than just sewing each square together.... I've been working on a Minecraft pixel quilt 2.5in squares 8X8 blocks and sewing all the pieces together has been fast and easy.

I LOVE pixel quilts. Just completing a 8 bit Link from Legend of Zelda Pixel quilt for my son. Next is Mario!
Would be great for a Minecraft Quilt. I love that fusible with the grid. Makes this project super simple and much easier! Love your tutorials, Rob!

Love, love love your tutorials. You're such a good instructor and fun to watch. Lots of detail and tips without a huge time investment. Thx!

This is so cool, i will try it right now, such a beautiful work!!
Being “old school” myself, I LOVE your patterns!!!!! I have to make one for myself!!!! Keep up the awesome work Rob!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Loving your pixel boom box 😊❤️
Space invaders or asteroids would make very interesting quilts. Centipede also :)
Love love love this. I had several boom boxes over the years...also cassette players. Lol great quilts!! Given me plenty of ideas to make some pixelated Mario characters for my kids...lol.
Yet another awesome video!

Cross-Stich Patterns work well too
Great technique! Thanks for the tutorial.
. thank u for sharing it was cute and easy to follow.. But I loved the other one that was hanging behind u
Love it 😊 Would love to see a Minecraft quilt.
My nephew has been wanting a Minecraft quilt, this is how to do it without all those itty-bitty squares!
great tutorial thank you. i have done this technique before it is great fun i do my own grid as i didnt have grid interfacing . i cheated when i did areas of the same colours and i cut strips and didnt bother sub cutting into tiny squares. so for example i needed 5 white next to each other ~~~~~ i say they were 2 in i added 5 x2 equals 10 and just cut a 10 in strip . then sew as above.
I value the efficiency. Thanks for sharing!
Great idea 💡..Thank you Rob!
I’ve been thinking about a pixel quilt recently! Maybe I will actually make it now.
Love LOVE this!!! Thank you👏👏👏
That is so cool.
WOW So cool Thanks for sharing
Rob you do not look old enough to remember the 80s!
I love your show
GAMECHANGER! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Love your videos! Would you create a tutorial for using a picture to create a quilt pattern that's not pixelated? For example, taking a picture of my dog or my flower garden, then creating a quilt pattern from those pictures.
I see a Minecraft quilt in my future! I’ll have one happy kid!
I've never bought or downloaded an online pattern, so excuse my ignorance, but where do I find that paper he showed in the beginning with the pattern for the walkman on it?
I love it. I want you to make a zipper bedding for a twin size bed. It's blankets that zips on the side with minky matteral inside.
Great quilt Rob! But would have loved to see a close up of the last sewing part. It was a little too fast. I have one of those big boom boxes in my wood shop :-) still works great! Lol
Where did you get the shirt from?
Amei esse tutorial
Now we need one for Minecraft!!!
Design your own using a picture from Minecraft
I was just getting ready to do a Zelda one, but mine is 40x33 squares. How do you combine the quiltsmart patterns?
I just finished a Link from Zelda quilt. Turned out great. Next one is Vault Boy from Fallout
Where can I find the interface again for pixel quilt?
Wish I had seen this earlier I have just completed Minecraft quilt with 27 blocks with 64 1” squares in each block it was a nightmare. As I stitched every piece.
this would be great for minecraft fans lol
Rob you should check out Patch Andi. She does pixel quilts of famous people. She has done Audrey Hepburn, Freda Karloh etc.
Rob, here’s an idea for teens. How about designing the face of an IPhone with regular and fun apps on it.
8bit life!
Please do a Minecraft one! I have to do one for a family member.
This is perfect for my oldest son that had a boom box because he was born in 1974. I’m sorry but I still don’t know how you got the small squares of fabric.
Charlotte Bruce I believe that he said that the squares were pre cuts. So they would be from a charm pack (a package of precut 2 inch squares)
He said he was using precuts.
Thanks for the answers

Reminds me of Legos
