Did more Pac-Man stuff, so here's the full set.  Probably gonna move onto some other sprites now.

love them

where do you get the patterns from or do you make them up

I just find the sprite I want and then just count pixels to make them.

Several years ago I used a pinball playfield as a centerpiece for a coffee table:



Am almost done building another one for Super!BitCon. The image below is a dry fit of the trim. Had to mark it all to start cutting the slots for the biscuit joints and what-not. The top frame that will hold the glass can be seen just off to the left.



Then I've also made several arcade marquee light boxes that I've sold at past game conventions. This photo was taken at OVGE 2012 (started off with seven). I still have a few that I'll be bringing out to S!BC.



My mother has recently resurrected a project I began about five years ago that I dubbed "pixel pillows." She's been going to town sewing (much better than I can) and will have a number of them at S!BC (assuming I don't snag a few for my couch first  ). The space invader is the most recent one in the works.

All of that is super awesome.  I know I'd love to have that pinball table.

These pillows look great! Sewing each little square must be so damn long.

Those Inky & Blinky throw pillows would go perfectly in my game room!

Pixel quilting is straight forward, if actually somewhat difficult. Too many squares~~~

Same here, isn't it awesome? If I had the room, I'd be all over him asking if he did commissions...

I've been meaning to do this w/ my Neo Geo MVS marquee.

Looks like an appliqued slipcover. Pretty cool!
