Mama Mia! Mario gets stitched up
6
As we have seen on previous occasions, patchwork quilts are perfect for recreating scenes from NES-era games. However, the Mario depicted on this quilt is a little more modern, and the results are no less spectacular.
Crafted by the wife of BoingBoing reader Brian (a.k.a bishmasterb), this work of art uses sixteen types of fabric, and is 36 columns by 44 rows tall (six feet by eight feet). Oh, and it's hung on that wall for the last five years, hidden from an appreciative world! For the record, we fully support the decision to show it off on its own wall. You can't actually use things that are this beautiful. That would be madness.

That's cool, but a little too eerie for a living room-type area.

They need to make patchwork versions of the paintings in Peach's Castle from Mario 64. The ones into which you jump to enter a level. Now THAT would be truly awesome to hang on the wall.
"Let's-a Go!!!" :D
