Reddit user ItsSnowry decided to post a picture on the internet of a unique-looking quilt that seems to have come out straight from anofficialMinecraftmerchandiseshop, as the style of art used to make the quilt expertly mimics the iconic block art seen in theMinecraftlandscape. The top of the quilt features a large panel set against a grey background with four boxes depicting images of Steve, a wolf, a pig, and a spider. A similar panel can be seen framing the bottom of the quilt with images of an Enderman, a villager, a Creeper, and a skeleton. The middle of the quilt prominently features a large ominous-looking Ender Dragon against a bright purple background reminiscent of the purple dye seen in the game.
While ItsSnowry mentioned that theMinecraft-themed giftgiven by their grandmother holds sentimental value, its size is more fitting for a twin bed, rather than the Queen-sized bed they currently own. Redditors have been quick to come up with suggestions, some of them suggesting the quilt should be put on a couch, hung on a wall, or even extended with extra squares depicting additionalMinecraftblocks. One cheeky user even jokingly suggested that ItsSnowry should buy a new bed in order to properly make use of the quilt.
As impressive as real-lifeMinecraftfan memorabilia can be, it is not the only way players are paying homage to Mojang’s title, as many talented modders are releasing custom data packs that can completely change the vibe of the game. Such is the case for a creative modder who capitalized on the recent urban legend hype andadded the infamous Backrooms toMinecraft. It will be interesting to see what other creationsMinecraftfans will be able to come up with in the future.
