Jumped on the Bandwagon


Okay, so I'm joining everyone else and making the Murderbot Baby Quilt. I'm going with the traditional color way. In the AppleTV+ version of the Murderbot series, there is logo for the Corporation that shows up most notably on uniforms (and elsewhere), but it wasn't until I was working on the center panel for the quilt that I realized that the Murderbot helmet is just an enlarged section of the Corporate logo. Fascinating. A logo for a face. No spoilers, so enough said...except...I found that I don't have enough of the Sanctuary Moon border fabric. I ordered some more but who knows how long it will take to get here and by what system of transport.


And tangentially to transport, there is the postage stamp quilt. I have gotten all the bits up to the 8 by 8 block size and these two piles will determine the final quilt size. There are advanced quilt making strategies for counting the number of blocks, setting a layout and determining the size of the quilt. But that would be time taken from reading Murderbot novellas...


Buddy would like me to go away and take my nonsense with me.

  1. He looks as though he's staring balefully at you over half-moon spectacles.

    Handsome guy, nonetheless.

  2. Sanctuary Moon border fabric?!? Tell me more!
    I can't tell you how many times I've reread the Murderbot series. As a podcaster I heard recently said, Murderbot is my Sanctuary Moon...
