With each block being made of 324 individual squares, I told him that he will not be getting the whole quilt, but if he wants to pick one block I will blow it up and turn it into a quilt. I love him but I don't love him 3,888 individual squares worth.
He said that would work so I started drafting up a design. I adapted Angela's design and added some grass and then will be adding "Super Mike" on the top and bottom.

By the way, if you have an iPad and you quilt, DOWNLOAD TOUCHDRAW. It is the best app to design quilts on your iPad with. It's fabulous!! Lily over at Lily's Quilts has several tutorials on how to use it as well. Do it. It is totally worth it.
Anyways, I set about cutting the 324 squares today and realized I don't have enough green so I will need to go get some of that tomorrow.

I recently joined to Dallas Modern Quilt Guild and there is a Sew In this Saturday so I am going to work on this quilt then! I'm so excited to meet people who like modern quilting and get what I do in real life!! I will also be taking several other projects so I will make sure to give you and update of what I get done at my first ever Sew In!

Wow what a quilt to make! So many squares!! What shade of green do you need? =D
