Pole Position Racing Quilt

Zooming into Etsy …

Recall the wind in your hair, the tang of smoking rubber on asphalt, the heat of your exploding Formula-1 racer as you wipe out again, and agin, and again against a billboard or into another car in this classic and hair-pullingly difficult archetype of the modern racing genre, Atari’s Pole Position.

Up close one can see only an impressionistic blotches of random pixels, but as one steps back from this massive, four-person-wide quilt, the image of that immortal race car begins to make yet one more unending lap around the track.

Not intended for use while driving.

– Approximately 110 x 50 inches (279.5 x 127 cm).
– Grey backing and red binding.
– Made from 100% cotton fabric and batting.
– Machine wash cold, tumble dry low.
– Pieced and quilted by machine in smoke-free, pet-free, and geek-friendly home.

First the wind blows one way …

And then the other …

Photographing a 110″ wide quilt is tough even with almost no breeze.

So what’s next in the videogame quilt world? I’m not sure. Pacman maybe. Or Duck Hunt. Or … Suggest something!

    Wow, that’s cool. I wish I could afford! Hmm…as far as suggestions for video game quilts? How about “Tetris”, “Space Invaders” or “Pitfall”..? I always loved those.
