Lovely .
How big is it? You could make a large squishy floor cushion that can be pummeled when frustrated - get your own back on Covid!

Yes and no, it is inspired by and made to show such a Corona Virus....
It's about 90cm high and 75cm wide.

So about 35.5" x 29.5" which seems like something you could add a border to to square it up and then make a lap quilt. Or a pillow could also work.
I think it's looks pretty cool. :thumbsup:

I like the idea of making it into a large floor cushion.

A floor cushion is a good idea. You can always kick the stuffing out of it over the covid situation
Excellent piecing

WOW!!!!!!!!
You always were very good at the 3D stuff .... I think a large floor cushion would be excellent too, especially with lil Wolfgang running around.
Have you a pattern?

A floor cushion is a good idea indeed
Generally the idea is copied from
Marci Baker
and
her books
. But I refused to buy it
so I simplified the virus and made a pattern myself m (but so far, is just in German
)
