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 can't see your pattern at all. Is there anyway you could just upload a picture? I probably don't have the software you used.

Also Katdun, looks awesome! Comletely up to you if you want to wsh it first. Some people washed and ironed theirs before sending so they could take nice pictures for their own use. Even if it is washed and ironed, I will still do it again, just to make sure.

I can't wait to start getting these in the mail. Like I said last year, it is like Christmas getting all of the packages and squeeling when I open them! I think I found a great light brown fabric/cream that would look good as a border, and I still have some of the light yellow.

That picture is really blurry, did you use a jpeg as the source image? Post the image you used and I will try to make it sharper and clearer for you.

I'm unsure if I want to commit to this, but are there still spots available so I can decide?

Yes, the squares have to be in by September 1 :) Plenty of time for you to decide!

Does this image look okay? Is it weird that her arm is kind of cut off?

This is going to be my next block. I've made a pattern out of it, but I'm not going to post it because the colors look horrible in PCstitch (although they're perfectly fine in real life). :grin:

I will stitch it next month, when I visit my parents in Italy, and after that I may consider a third block. It's so much fun making them!

*Edit: The block is from Fez. Yay for indie games!

I like it and I don't think it looks weird at all!

Yeah, I guess I should have mentioned it :blush:
It's from Fez, which is not out yet, but is going to be once the quilt is ready to be auctioned. I really like indie games and I'm considering making some more indie blocks...
