My daughter and I are volunteers with the Make A Wish foundation, and one of her "wish kids" is a 13 year old boy who loves video games. She asked me to make a zipper bag for him. What is a good design for a teen boy? I thought about the high top sneaker design from Disorderly Threads, or the game case from Moosebstitchin. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

I would get video game official fabric as any legal video game designs would be very expensive. I would think his initial or favorite saying could be stitched. Many boys that age like Minecraft or Pokemon or maybe Smash Bro. Most fabric stores I have seen carry the licensed fabrics.

Rescuer beat me to the suggestion I was going to make. I'm sure he'll appreciate anything you come up with.

thank you. It is difficult for me to have ideas for teen boys, because I've only had girls. Teen boys are mysterious creatures to me!

I want to say thank you to you and your daughter for your selflessness and generosity. The kids in this program go through so much and people like you two make their lives bearable.

Thank you for your kind words. We have hosted several "reveal" parties in which the child finds out their wish has been granted and they find out the actual details of their wish. It is always a fantastic, unforgettable moment.

If you can find any MINECRAFT fabric, maybe Dr. Who and if you get stuck ask a boy of similar age they know the popular ones. I was surprised to see pokemon came back. Good luck

I will be going to the fabric store on Tuesday, so I will certainly be scouring the shelves. Thanks

Thank you on my behalf for you being volunteers for this great cause. I think the idea of the licenced fabric by rescuer and sewdeb would be great. Any sport item would also be good. ❤️ Chris

Thank you. Being a wish granter is quite a humbling experience. I want him to have something he will enjoy.
