Sprite Stitch Board!

Cool, such a big project!
So how did you make the pattern? KG Chart? And how did you pick the colours? (If you don't mind me asking!)
So I guess that yellow thread marking is to keep on you on track huh? Can you tell me more about it? I hope I am not asking too many questions!

Anyway, keep it up!

edit: Ooh just thought of another question! How did you finish the edges of the aida from fraying? Is that a machine zig zag? Okay, okay I'll stop now! I promise!

1) Yes, I used KG chart and just used the colours that it gave me. Next time though I might try and match up the colours a little better. Go by the patch that it gives me.

2) Yes the yellow thread keeps me in line. I do them going across. 10 squares up and 10 squares down. When I'm done I can just pull them out. I find it's pretty good off of the get go. It takes a lot of time to set up but I make a lot less mistakes, especially if I have large areas of the same colour.

3) It's a pair of scissors that give it the zig zag. In theory if it frays it's only a small area that frays however I found that it hasn't worked so well. When I did my husbands fabric for him I used a sewing machine to make a hem in order to keep it from fraying. It seems to work a lot better.

UPDATE COMING SOON. PROMISE.

Update Time! Update Time!
Quite a bit more done, but hey still a long way to go.

You can't really see the other eye because of the shadows and the glasses. It's just the one reddish eye that stands out. Now I plan however to try and work on the glasses and see hyow much of it I can actually get done.

good luck! ^_^

It's looking awesome! Keep it up!
