Aimee Stitches Video Game Things (Current Project: Super Mario World overworld)

Post by aimee »

I didn't want to hijack the Super Mario World WIP post, but I'm going pretty hardcore on that project and decided maybe to start my own thread--by super hardcore, I mean I'll maybe finish this project in < 2 years :D

Progress so far:

(sorry if this is repeated from the other thread) I hand-dyed the aida, 18ct., with Tulip light blue dye. I started at the bottom center around Chocolate Island (the icebergs are the ones directly to the left of that and the land showing right now is the bottom left tip of that island, woo).

That's one I've thought about. It's a very nice pattern, good luck. It looks awesome so far.

This is the pattern I most want to stitch but know I would never actually finish, so I absolutely love seeing other people tackle it. Your aida turned out amazingly! I can't wait for more updates.

Lighting is making it look a little drab but current progress:

I've been binge watching true crime shows while filling out Chocolate Island so far. I think my favorite part about stitching projects is just how much a piece carries the memories of things you watch while working on them :)

Current progress :) Right near the pipe on Chocolate Island and the "6" sign. I took a few days off working on this to go on vacation--totally not viable to carry a 3' x 3' piece of cloth around with you lol.
