Pixel Stitches Weekly Projects

Hey guys!

I started up a YouTube Channel last week (in my sig) and am going to be updating it at least weekly with smaller projects and showing progress on larger ones. I figured instead of bombarding the forums with a bunch of threads, I'd keep 'em compact in this one. Here's the projects I completed for the week of December 6th-13th:

Image

It's a Raphael the Raven keychain, and two Pokemon Badges from the Kanto region, Cascade and Volcano. I'll eventually be making the rest, but these are the first two I planned on.

And here's the large project I'll be working on for a month or so, Zeke from Zombies Ate My Neighbors:

Image

I don't have a progress shot of him yet, but so far his left arm is complete and most of the outlining of his shirt.

You guys can let me know on here if you have any ideas for projects. I'm really interested in making smaller projects of what others want to see made, so let me know :nod

I'm still trying to figure out what I'll make for next week, but I'll update asap!

Oh geeze, I can't believe I forgot to say! :shock: I'm stitching him on 14ct seafoam green aida cloth. I'm happy with how he's turning out, but I kinda hit a roadblock with a certain color that's not quite light enough in the thread...it's his watch face color/the side of his 3-D glasses, and a bit on his face. I've been coing through all the DMC colors on the color chart to figure out what would be best, but oh well. I'll figure it out :pac

And thank you guys, I'm glad you like everything so far :blush:

Sheesh! I just realized I haven't ever updated my page! Haha, go figure...

I've had a lot of projects that I posted elsewhere (like my Yoshi's Cookie charm bracelet and Scott Pilgrim necklaces), but I'll post this week's projects and each additional week's from here on out. Sorry Guys xD

Image
Here's a Crystal Castles necklace. Bentley Bear is cross stitched onto plastic canvas, and the gems he's going after are mini hama beads!

Image
Here's my Knuckles keychain completed, but missing his gold keyring (which is essential!!!). I'm still trying to figure out how to get/make a gold keyring, but that's something that needs to happen :nod

Image
A Tenda from EarthBound needlepoint project! I actually had the Tenda made a long time ago, but just got around to making the "Strawberry Flavor" background now xD

And last but not least, my latest progress on Zeke:

Image
I'm really happy with how he's coming out, but I want to get a lot more completed, so I'm going to mostly work on him next week, and not so many small projects. Hope you all like everything so far! I'll also try and post any projects I missed from the past few weeks up soon :grin:

Not much to show this week except decent progress on Zeke and a quick little Screw Attack logo necklace from Metroid!:

Image
I completed his water gun uzi and his left arm xD Can't wait to finally get on stitching his face!

Image
Hopefully I'll get a better pic soon of my wearing it, cause this photo makes the colors look a bit washed out. I'm surprised I haven't made one f these before but am glad I have now :nod

Not much this week either (but will be more free next week!). Here's the couple of necklaces I made:

Image
Sound Stone from EarthBound

This charm has 10 different shades of blue thread in it! Pretty hardcore for being so tiny haha.

Image
Kirby on his Warp Star

The inside of the star was stitched with glow-in-the-dark thread which turned out really well, but mannn what a pain to use haha. I can't get a good photo of the glow, but I did get a good recording of it in my latest YouTube video which you can see here if you're interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVMrjknU ... ideo_title

Also since I mad projects of my own ideas this week, I would like people to send me suggestions for a couple small projects for next week. Let me know here, if you have any ideas :peach
