But he already has numerous quilts ...
So I thought I'd make one with a more practical use:
With a mixture of straight line and free motion quilting.
I have made some little bean bags to use as draughts pieces.
But only 6 so far, so 18 left to make!!
The backs of the pieces have pictures of a crown for when a piece is 'kinged'.
And the back of the quilt uses some pieces I had in the stash including part of a gorgeous train panel for my train loving kid!
His birthday is during our family holiday so I want to try and get all the pieces (beanbags) finished before we leave.
Better get cracking!!!

how clever Andi !
Brilliant idea Andi! I used to have a beach towel you could play noughts and crosses on and it was fabulous! This quilt will bring many hours of entertainment and looks amazing! Happy holidays and travel safely! x
such a great idea!!!
That's such a fab idea... hours of fun for everyone!
what a great idea! Love the crowns!
Oh I love it! Great idea Andi xox
They look awesome! I made one and used blue and green milk bottle lids for the playing pieces. It works good because if you loose a piece at the beach or something, you just drink another bottle of milk! Yours look way fancier though :)
Wonderful idea Andi - it is looking great.
