Personally, I think 471 is a better choice than 470. It also seems to match the grass well on my screen. Otherwise, maybe 581? Just a tad darker than 471.

How about 472, 3819, or 166? I'm not looking at the colours in person, but they look like they could be a good match.

Advance Wars WIP
Working on my Advance Wars quilt piece. I wish PCStitch gave me better contrast between the blues. I've got 4 different blues going on, but only looks like 2.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys! I went with 166. It's looking a lot better.

Welp, Here is my charity square. Its from The Legendary Starfy for the DS.
The game plays like Kirby but easier (if you can imagine). The low difficulty of the game kinda ads to the charm in my opinion. This particular scene is of Starfy and Boss Big Squiddy

I love starfy! But I can't beat the last boss
Your square looks great & does a great job of representing the game. Excellent work BigDaddyWiz.

Thanks Stitchingmama! I can't remember the last boss, I actually had to look up the name for this one lolz. Stitching this made me want to play it over again but sadly I forgot I traded it into Gamestop.

I had to stop doing this one for a bit as my hubby sprung it on me that he wanted me to stitch something Irishy for a donation to take to his Irish Immersion Weekend in May and the piece I've decided to do is about 7" on 18-count so I've got to spend all my time trying to get it done before May 2nd. lol
Here is what I've gotten done so far though!

Re: Stitching for Charity 2014
Woo! I finally started my square! Ooo, I've done a bit of this and a bit of that. Maybe I should post my WIP. Nah, let me add a few more colours first... Nooo!
The colours are Very wrong. *sighs*
I had never eyeballed that many colours before and had decided to just go with KG-chart's choices. I didn't realize that multiple shades of purple could be so finicky Sometime this weekend I will look through all of my thread to see which ones work with the piece and which onces I will need to replace. I'm still excited to try stitching Ridley. I just need to slow down and pay more attention to what I'm doing.
