A game of chess
Thinking of what’s the best thing to kill some time in a hospital Sonja came up with the idea of a chess quilt. The board was made quick and easy out of black and white fabrics. Then she appliquéd some figures on the quilt to make it look a bit fancier. the job wasn’t finished after quilting and binding some playing pads had to be made. Adding a few basic chess rules to the bag and a kid can start playing chess while having its treatment at the monish hospital.
