OK, so I've been following the forum for a long time, but haven't really posted much until now. :p
I think it's time to share my work with you guys, and see what you think xD
I don't have the measurements in my head, so I'll update on that later.

The first things I made were a blue Yoshi "evolution", plus a Rex, all from Super Mario World.

As you can see, I didn't really have any white floss, so I'll probably dig these out and fix them xD And possibly redo Rex, since I'm not very happy with how the colors turned out.

Then I made some magnets. I forgot to take pictures of all of them before giving them away, but I'll get proper pictures of them later. In the meantime, here's a quick (horrible) collage done in Paint xD

And I've just finished Mario through the Nes ages, but I haven't been able to take a picture of it yet. I'll put it up later!

They look really good. How did you do the edges? Is it just white thread tacked through?

Thanks, guys! :D
Pyper; yeah, I just folded the edges back and tacked using off white crochet thread.
I can take pictures of the backs so you guys can see better :)

Ok, so I've finally gotten around to taking pictures of the back of one of my stitchings, so you can see how I did it.
Bonus pictures; My finished Mario NES Evolution and my newest WIP which will be a Christmas present for a friend.

The full quote is "Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the floor each morning, the devil says "Oh crap. She's up."" xD

Still haven't been able to get a picture of the magnets, but I will remember to bring my camera the next time I visit my friend! :D

People think alike! I have that quote being done as my own cross-stitch too... It's all fancier, for some reason, heh. I'm going to have so much fun with that cross-stitch. I love your Kiba!
