So it's about time for a new craft. Well, not really a totally new craft, but a new way of making a quilt. My four year old daughter is watching Superhero cartoons on Netflix. She really only likes the ones with the girls, so we're watching X-men (lots of girls) and we flip through episodes of Justice League until we find one where Wonder Woman is the "focus" of the episode.
Well.. I decided to make a Superhero logo quilt. I decided on about a 7 inch long or wide logo. Some logos are wider than they are long, so 7 inches wide and whatever height for scale. So I picked up 2 yards of white fabric for the quilt top, which is 72 inches. So, 72 inches... divided by 8 inches (7 inch logo, plus an inch between logos), that's 9 rows of logos, and 42 inches across divided by 8 is 5 logos. So, 9 times 5 is.. FORTY FIVE? I'm making a quilt with 45 logos? What was I thinking?
So I made up a document of heros that have logos. The first ones are easy, Wonder Woman, Superman, Batman... but near the end I'm scraping for logos. Hit Girl, Greatest American Hero... So I wanted them dispersed through the quilt. I used random.org to give me a random sequence of 1-45 and out them in a spreadsheet. 
I am using Gimp to draw all the logos, because I need the colors separate. It's a slow go, but I'm making progress. I'll explain later how I'm actually doing all the work (tracing and heat-n-bond light), but for right now, I completed the first logo, and it is Wonder Woman. Center, top of the quilt.
