Stitching for Charity 2012

[Servotron]

Hi,
Is it too late to join up? I am new to the forums but have been stitching for a while and this is a great idea!
I would like to do a shot from the awards ceremony of Super Mario Kart!
Here is a picture of the pattern (may need to fix up some of the colors once I go floss shopping/matching):

I had to cobble it together a bit since I couldn't get a clear enough screenshot with the characters I wanted in it, fit to size and not come out with a bazillion colors when running it through due to my crude copy/paste job.... but it should be close enough to a "real screenshot" to count I think?

Nope, it's not too late to join up. Remember to sign up on the Google Docs page and that tnitnetny needs the squares by the 1st September (or earlier, which would be better)

I read tnitnetny is going to wash the squares when she gets them, but should I wash and block it also or will the blocking come out/undone when she re-washes it?

I finally decided what I want to cross-stitch, I added myself to the list

Oops I didn't realize I had to approve my picture first. I'll upload it!

It's the area inside the red box. I know it's pretty simple and there aren't a lot of colors but that's what I love about it, it's so video-game vintage-y!

I picked up my needle and thread tonight and started work on my square again. I realized that the other reason I had stopped was because my chart had some issues. I have resolved one of them tonight (add moar colors!) and updated my chart with all of the changes I've made so far. BUT now my printer is out of ink (of course) so I can't print the updated chart... if it's not one thing, it is ALWAYS another :\
