The PC/Mac version of Minecraft has full third-party modding support and there are thousands of custom user created mods, texture packs and skins available to download and use. It was truly a labor of love that I hope he will treasure for a long time.Minecraft is a sandbox style game, which allows players to create their own world with blocks, kind of like the video game equivalent of Lego! It can be played on both singleplayer and multiplayer and features four different game modes Creative, Survival, Adventure and Hardcore. Thankfully, my grandson still loves Minecraft and adores his stuffy. I’m not sure how many hours it took to complete, but it took two years from start to finish. This project started during the Covid lockdown which happened right after my retirement. I used plain cotton fabric to make the “quilt” fabric. I used graph paper to color in each section as it looked in the printed image. (Little did I realize that it would translate into a creation half as tall as my grandson!) I decided on two inch squares so as not to make the fabric too difficult to handle. I used the printed image to draw lines and figure out how to make my pattern. I purchased four hues of each color and used strip quilting techniques to piece and construct enough sections to make it. I was unable to find pixelated fabric, so I decided to make my own. Found it, enlarged it, and printed it off. I searched the Internet for the image I wanted to replicate. The stuffy is based on a character from the video game Minecraft. So when it came time to create a “stuffy” for my then-five-year-old grandson’s Christmas present, I dived in. Over the years, I’ve learned how to make prom dresses, quilts, curtains, and have even reupholstered furniture. My mom taught me how to use the machine and to make my own clothes. My parents owned a shop where they sold and repaired sewing machines. I have been sewing since the age of five.
