Pokemon Quilt

I got my Pokemon Quilt all finished this week! And I got it washed and wrapped up and now it is sitting under the tree waiting until Christmas!
I love how this turned out. There is just enough Pokemon characters to make it a Pokemon quilt, but not too many that it can grow with my boy. Pokemon is not my favorite thing, so this gift is a huge deal - I think he has been asking for it for a couple of years now!
I stuck with bright colors to go with all the bright characters in Pokemon. I backed it with minky fabric because that seems to be the favorite of all my kids right now - and who doesn't love a nice soft warm quilt backing!? I used the same red and white stripe for the binding that I used on my super hero quilt.
I quilted it with straight lines, and I like how simple and nice it looks. It ended up being just larger than twin size.
My Pokemon fabric only gave me a couple of different characters to use, so we used all of them twice!
Now I am off to finished up some other Christmas presents and house cleaning because today our temperatures are supposed to make it to 3!! Too cold to go outside!

Enjoy!

  1. I love it! It looks awesome. If I have to do a character quilt I am calling you for directions of how you did this. And hearing how "warm" you are supposed to be makes me think I can't complain about my temp although I think it is too cold anytime it can't get to 30.

  2. What a great quilt! My daughter loves minky, too, but I hate sewing the polyester. The sacrifices we make as moms :)
