Super Mario World Map WIP

[double j]

I am very slow and about 2 hours per week is all I get time to do. Keep it up.

I managed to get a couple of hours in today =]

And thanks a lot for the encouragement everyone =]

And a close up

I'm going to try and squeeze in an hour of stitching to tonight after I have finished work. Not sure if it'll be worth uploading another pic just yet though.

Waw!
You stitch fast

[Squall5005]

I pretty much spent a whole day stitching when I started this project on Saturday but I'll be lucky to get in 2-3 hours a week due to working long hours and spending most weekends away from home.

I haven't made much progress since my last WIP update =[

Hang in there! It will be well worth it in the end

I'm really motivated at the moment and I'm on a bit of a stitching rampage. I managed to get an hour last night and I'll hopefully get a couple more in after I've finished work this evening.

I will be sure to post a WIP before I go to bed.

It's looking good so far, Squall5005. Unless I'm mistaken, I see you're stitching from the top down. I try to do all of my stitching that way because I find it easier and I don't pull up nearly as many already finished stitches.

I can usually only get about 1-2hrs a night for a week or two until my wife starts giving me puppy dog eyes. As far as work goes, I've often taken a whole week off and planned it so my wife wouldn't be off too and spend the entire week stitching. Some might say it's selfish, I say it's heaven.

A little later than I had planned but here is an update of my progress =]

You'll notice that 1 line of the light green grass looks a shade lighter than the rest. This is because I accidentally did one row of stitches in the other direction...and it's really bugging me.

I may have to go back at some point and fix it. =[


Be warned. The pics are extremely large.

Looks good squall, but I see what you mean about the one line. Things like that drive me nuts!

On the other hand, I did notice you cross you stitches and opposite way than I do. Are you a righty or lefty? American or European? Does this even make a difference, or did I just learn to do mine backwards I sometimes do that....
