Quantcast


It's dangerous to go alone. Take this. photo

Dammit, there are a lot of 8-bit inspired handmade game items that I can resist, but I don't think I have the power to hold back on this one. Etsy strikes again with this handcrafted Zelda quilt, which I want to promptly roll myself into a little retro burrito in and make ecstatic squeaking sounds. If you aren't a Zelda fan, the artist also makes Space Invaders pillows and Resident Evil blankets. I'm convinced after this that there no end in sight to the cool crap that I need to own. Anyway, I'm taking up a collection to buy this, so if you want to donate, I'll come to your house dressed like a Big Daddy and perform the Memory Card scene of your choice (with Chad's permission, of course.)

I would prefer a towel, you know, it is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitch hiker can have.

It's because of cool things like this that sewing is on my list of things to learn over the next couple of years.

@Skeeter

She could dress like that, or she could dress like Jade from Beyond Good and Evil.

It is difficult to resist. Buy this now and your journey to the Dark Side will be complete!

Damn, the Zelda blanket's sold. We have a baby on the way - I was seriously considering buying this as a baby blanket, if the price was relatively reasonable.

Hey all! I'm the maker of these lovelies! I wasn't expecting the attention so I only had one of each item. If anyone does want one, convo me on etsy and ask me kindly. I can make more!
