Tetris in the Mail!

Quilters really know how to spoil other quilters.  P. from The Way I Sew It, has been blogging about her rash of mug rug making.  I've not been shy in expressing my delight with each one.  So you can imagine my glee when I found this is my mailbox:


Tetris!  What a beauty, eh?  The design brings back a lot of memories.  Tetris was one of the first computer games that I played.  I downloaded a free version on to my Windows 98, and moved the game onto each new computer and accompanying Windows version ~ through Me and XP.  Unfortunately, when I upgraded to Windows 7, it could not run my ancient version of Tetris.

So now, the mug rug sits beside my Juki and holds the cup of tea I often have while I'm quilting.  Thanks P!  You made my day!

  2. That is very cute! What a lovely surprize and gift. Tetris brings a lot of memories back indeed!!! I remember how my dad and I would play against each other on the PC. Those where fun days.

  3. Ah lovely - tetris was the only computer game I got seriously hooked on. My great achievement was getting to the top of the leader board in an arcade in Tenerife while on holiday there!

    They still have versions to play on facebook to get your fix in...
