My brother Nathan is unmarried. Translation: he has no wife to interfere with his decorating sense. Currently, that sense is telling him to create a miniGotham for his Batman bobbleheads on his mantel. I've been put in charge of essentially a table runner for under the wooden buildings; I'll be making the roads and curbs and whatnot. Seeing as this is his living room, I'm butting in and doing some decorating for him in the form of a throw pillow.
Right now it's not sewn, it's just fused waiting for me to stop reading the 100 Cupboards series. Rereading technically. What can I say, my husband had a business trip. When left to myself I either quilt or read. This time I picked read.
I went with POW as it's pretty classic. My personal favorite, of course, has always been BIFF. Seriously, what's not to love about BIFF? It's a bit dorky, just the way I like 'em. I think for authenticity purposes the POW ought to have an exclamation mark. Oh well.
Also, I haven't actually told my bro-dawg that I'm vicariously decorating, so I suppose we are back to Don't Tell Nathan Lindsey status. I think it's level Orange.

Hilarious!! BIFF was always my favourite too!
Is that the shape of the pillow or will it be on a square or rectangle? I think he will LOVE it.
Awesome. It's always fun to be able to make a "custom" item like that, especially for guys who wouldn't want flowery quilty stuff. (Hence my occasional sports-fan quilt.) Also reminds me, somehow, of another blogger's recent quilt along - Mario & Luigi, for her favorite Nintendo fan ... http://sohappytosew.blogspot.com/
