I had big dreams for this challenge. Unfortunately life got in the way of crafting, so I will be working on the cross stitch side of this for a while. I did at least get Black Mage crocheted

I present to you Black Mage's Crafty Staycation

I think that's a great BM holiday - looks like he (she? :blush: ) is having fun!

I hope you'll post pictures when you've finished the border, MeiTow; it all looks great!

Pyper, I love the idea of BM stitching Eve - they're both creatures with single-colored bodies, vaguely-defined heads, and glowing eyes peeking out from a dark space. :)

I will do that! Probably be a couple of months as the three projects I have next to do need to get done asap. :D

Love those pants, BMH! :grin: Everybody has such great ideas!

On the staycation theme, the black mage puts her party hat on and sits down to play video games and eat junk food. After she beats the game, she decides to take a nice long bubble bath. She takes care of all that crazy hair that's normally hidden under her hat and tucks it into a towel, then she sits down to read a book. And after a long day of relaxing, the black mage deserves a rest and goes to bed.

Thanks! It was harder to find green and white vertical stripey ones than it was to make that robe and hat!

EDIT: Also...that party hat is awesome. Must get me a party hat.
