Pokeball phone charm

[techno-ninja]

So my boyfriend asked me to make him a pokeball charm for his phone, and this is the result!





I'll post the pattern here aswell, although it is very basic, I did it in about 2 minutes.

Omg I need to make like a million of these right meow! Could you post as a pdf as I am on a Mac and cannot open sth files. Also, how did you sew around the edges there? I've never stitched on plastic canvas so I'm not sure how it all stays together and strings don't show.

The charm is double sided and the edges were stitched using a whipstitch, http://www.needlepointers.com/displaypa ... t_id%3d145 < There is a video here that shows you how to do a simple whipstitch. On the corners i tend to send the thread through the hole twice just to make sure it's covered. To give decent coverage around the edges i use the whole six threads of the skein (but still separate them first).
