Checkers!

My daughter wanted a Checker's game for Christmas. I thought it would be fun to make our own unique set (which the kids have loved)! The one I made for the kids is an over-sized floor mat that I pieced together with fleece and felt. It has wooden stars for the game pieces and the whole thing was way too much work! :) However, I've made several sets since then after finding checkerboard fabric. Here are a few:
Alien invasion!
Mickey Mouse :)
Princess and the Frog!

    I love these! I wish I had kids to make them for! But, in the meantime, I am dreaming up ideas for my teenage nieces and nephews...not sure how it would go over for them!

    My daughter received a tic-tac-toe game like this for her birthday. Check it out.
