There's gonna be a whole lot of sonic patches this year if I finish all the ones I have... I have one from Sonic 2 of Tails and Sonic running going now, and the faces of Knuckles and Amy Rose as well.

Looking forward to participating this year, especially since I've got 6 months to get it done and mailed out. Now to figure out which image I want to stitch.

This will be my last update of my Chrono Cross square before it's finished. Still need one color, but I'm snowed in today. May pick it up this weekend.

I think so, Brain, but can the gummi worms really live in peace with the marshmallow chicks?
I think so, Brain, but if they called them "sad meals" nobody would buy them.

I've finally given in and decided to do a few squares for the quilt. I picked 2 of my favorite recent games - Bastion and Dust: An Elysian Tale. Both are indie games and have such beautiful art styles, i hope i can do them justice. I spent the morning making the patterns.

The Bastion of course looks awesome (as I said in the email), but that second square is just fantastic. I can't wait to see them in person.

Merryweather, that is looking AWESOME!

Kareesh, isn't it a great feeling knowing you are almost done? It is looking great!

Just as a reminder to everyone, I am in Canada now. Although if you want to send the squares to my address in the states (if it is cheaper) you can as long as you send it before June 1. Anything after that will have to go to Canada, I don't know if I will be in the states in July. Also, please if you are not in Canada give your squares at least 4 weeks to reach me. We all know how customs can be sometimes.

I love the Bastion pattern, I'm sure it will look fabulous! I really need to download that game, I remember falling in love with the screenshots of the game a couple years ago before it came out.

PLEASE make sure it is postmarked before June 1 if you want to send it to this address. If you send it to this address after that date I can't guarantee I will have it in time.

Hi everyone! I've not been able to post for a while as my computer has been on the fritz, but I finished my first square yesterday- Aero the Acrobat (SNES).
Here's- roughly- what it looks like (and sorry for the lousy photo quality!):

Tomorrow I go to purchase fabric for my second square. I'm happy that it only has 36 colours, whereas this one had 67. So my second square shouldn't take as long. :)
