So when I saw this one I was incredibly inspired. There's a guy that made minimalism backgrounds of all the pokemon, http://pldh.net/gallery/the493, and I just couldn't help myself but go that way! Image quality is pretty lousy but hopefully it's still pretty clear.

Who's that pokemon!

I very nearly did one of those myself. I remember sitting for a while ages ago saving every. single. one. to my hard disk! I always figured they would be stitchable! :D

That's so funny! I did that too, spent hours saving all the ones I liked. I rotate them out as my desktop background. :)

That moment when you have time, energy and motivation to do tons but you realise the felt is an inch short, the glue is drying and your stuck in the middle of a project wondering how to continue...

Yep, that moment has come for me...

I give you... Who's That Pokemon?
1Whos That Pokemon - Shazbang - SS Minimalist.jpg
It measures just over 6x6 inches on plastic canvas - that's bigger than the Charity Quilt squares!
Thanks to my oversight while making the pattern, I ended up with what will now be a giant coaster instead of a regular sized one lol! :banghead:
It has 6 different blues in there! What a pain! But the main thing is the silhouette obviously lol :nod

Anywho, hope you guys like my very first challenge entry ever! :D
Okay, now this is a Pokemon one that I do like! Awesome and creative. :clapping:
