Super Mario Bros 3 World Maps Complete

[Veganpunk]

Thanks to TMurdock and this board for the patterns, I have made it a goal to complete all 8 Worlds for Super Mario Bros 3 (My favorite game of all time). I have completed World 1, which was started in May of last year, and finished in December (I took a few months break). Started World 2 in December and have been hitting it hard. I chose the original NES versions over the 16 bit upgraded. I've searched online and this board but couldn't find any WIP or finished pieces of Worlds 3,4,5,6 and 7, and was wondering if anyone actually finished these long projects? I will post WIPs as I go along, and want to say thank you again to TMurdock and this board, for all the great work I've seen done here.

They look good! I've been slowly working on the NES version of World 1 (I wanted to go in order). I think I keep forgetting to post pictures, though...

Hey, good luck! That's an ambitious plan! I've already completed Worlds 2 and part of World 8... I'm currently working on World 6, but probably not going to stitch all the white parts...







I'll see you in a few years when you're done!

Years would be a true statement! World 6 is looking good! I've been debating doing the white on World 5 and 6, haven't made up my mind yet.

I finished a world 1 that is HUGE (about 2 feet across) that hangs in our living room. I wanted to stitch all of the worlds, but I may just start over and stitch smaller ones. Good luck with your maps!!

I think I'm going to do the white in the ocean and see how it looks, but otherwise it's so much white thread that can easily get dirty... I don't want to risk it

Dirtying up the white is always my fear. I save it to the end. But with World 2, I roll it up as a scroll, so there's less exposed. Haven't made much progress since I last posted photos, (currently sucked into The Last of Us), so I'm gonna wait a few more days for a WIP.

World 2 was a drag. The yellow drove me crazy and it was so frustrating. World 6 has been easier because there's a lot less of any single color to do... The water is boring, but there's not that much of it. Looking forward to seeing your progress!

Very cool! I've done world 1 and started on 2, but don't know if I ever will finish it
Great Job!!

SO SICK of yellow!! I'll post a wip later tonight.
