I Made 3 Quilts with Amazing Results.

Find these patterns here: www.merrymabel...
There are several ways that you can turn pixel art into quilts. Our new patterns were made after we commissioned work from a pixel artist. (For full disclosure - he is a "good guy" relative.) It was fun to realize that if we wanted a specific pattern we could tell him what we wanted and he would make us a piece of pixel art. (Art using only squares.) We then spent some fun hours making that art into a quilt pattern to make beautiful Pixel Art Quilts. (3 of them!)
In the video, we demonstrate putting one of them together with the steps we took. We also show the other two quilts that we commissioned. They are all patterns for sale on our website.
We also tell you how to create your own pixel art so that you can make up your own patterns if you want to. It's such a fun, creative way to play with fabric, color, and design.
If you want to contact "Artindi" to order a pixel art piece you can contact him at this email: [e-mail]

Seeing a pixel teddy bear quilt. Thank you for sharing the basics of how to plan & put together such an adorable quilt technique.

[@merrymabelmarket]

You are so welcome!

[@13Laynie]

I love how you talk about how your brain works and giving other suggestions- I do that too!

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thank you for watching.

[@mothersmoonchild]

You have my undivided attention. I have really always wondered when would i ever see something as such, youre the first. Thank you 😊

[@merrymabelmarket]

Wow, thanks!

[@katrinaking8298]

Love doing pixel art quilts. I have also gotten sticker art books and the color by number books. They work just like the cross stitch books.

[@terryanderson6153]

The turtle is my favorite, but they are all so fun! Thanks for always coming up with new things and ways.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thanks for watching!

[@cynthiajones1461]

I love the idea of using cross stitch patterns! And I think the jellyfish would be fun to make.

[@merrymabelmarket]

It was fun to make. I did it first.

[@DH-qz2so]

Love your no nonsense approach and your not needing approval to do it Your Way... because you want to do it your way! Love it! This reminds me of your Pixel Reindeer video that you did at Christmas...which is definately on my Do List!

[@merrymabelmarket]

I appreciate that!

[@mariejohns1387]

I love these!! So so cute! The jellyfish is my favorite. Years ago my granddaughter was learning how to stay in the lines when she colored and learning numbers. I had found coloring books at the Dollar General that were pixelated just like your patterns. I kept the books because I thought they might come in handy someday. I had always thought that it might be able to make a quilt. So glad I kept them!!

[@merrymabelmarket]

So cool!! Yes - make some darling quilts!

[@namevale8835]

Um SO COOL! I didn't know pixel art quilts were a thing! Great idea

[@villagesteader3552]

How cool is that! I’m going to pull out my cross stitch books! I can’t do it any more because of my neuropathy but I can quilt !

[@merrymabelmarket]

Great Plan!

[@katehenry2718]

White-out tape clears even very small mistakes. Great for crossword puzzles and pre printing "firsties".

[@merrymabelmarket]

Yes - Hooray for white out!

[@deeannwichert3812]

You make sewing little squares together look so eazy! I would only try this with the 10 sisters grid system!! I'm still not sure if I could get the seams to line up properly! I love the turtle the best, but all of them are adorable! Thank you for sharing this & all your gorgeous quilts. ❤

[@merrymabelmarket]

You can do it!

[@amydement.]

This is just the cutest EVER! Thanks so much for sharing and for showing some unconventional methods for quick and easy joining of those long rows of tiny blocks. My favorite thing is that you emphasize that the seam doesn't have to be anything BUT consistent - too many speak to only ONE way of doing things and that stifles creativity and engagement.

[@merrymabelmarket]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@marygeorge9688]

Fun! Thank you for sharing this!

Our pleasure!

[@norahmcphee4928]

Good afternoon flower, I LOVE Toby Turtle, he is so beautiful done in the colours you have, against the sea. Sorry Oscar the Orca, you are lovely to,, as well as Jenny Jellyfish in her beautiful colours. THank you to your wonderful friend and his creativity in colouring Toby, Oscar and Jenny, they worked out stunningly. Making them a tiny bit bigger, would that make them baby cot bed size? It would definitely make them originals. THank you flower for sharing your wonderful creations with us, sending crafty hugs from Norah, Glenochil, Scotland

[@merrymabelmarket]

I love your names. Yes - on the patterns we tell you the size if you use 2.5 inch squares. Thus making them a lovely baby quilt hug.

Thanks for the visit.

[@louisealley4703]

Hi love your pixel quilts. I have a question can you use any size square you choose in fabric or are there rules to follow?? Thanks Lou

[@merrymabelmarket]

Pixel art always looks best smaller. But on our patterns, I did add the information for how big the quilts will be if you use 2.5 inch squares instead of 2 inch squares.

[@nannynae10]

I love this. Where does one look for these prinouts?

[@merrymabelmarket]

[@cherylmeinhardt2068]

Please let me know what the name of the cutting ruler is that you've used for this project.

[@merrymabelmarket]

I show and tell all about it in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mV6tdoZsmLuHiJY It's at about two minutes and eleven seconds if you only want to watch that part.
