Re: Sprite Stitch SAL - Summer 2017
Yay! So, I've never participated in a stitchalong here - thankfully I checked the forum to find that it's only just begun. I was wondering how much time we have on each square - is it a week from the posting of the pattern? I really want to participate and see it through til the end - I totally found out about the last one too late.
Current Projects:
Epic Pokemon Generation I
Game of Mushroom Kingdoms
"When Fandom Collides" Bag
Coming Soon:
Disney Mickey Villains
Wonder Woman Typography
...So Many More
One stitch at a time.

Re: Sprite Stitch SAL - Summer 2017
Spacing between designs really just depends on yourself - you might like to have the border go all the way around each design for example. In that case, you obviously just need to leave enough space for said border! And of course, that all depends on the border's styleBadgerSensei wrote:I'm trying to figure out how to space out the squares for a boarder and heading etc. and I have no idea how to go about that. I don't know if anyone has a boarder planned out already or anything, but if someone could give me some spacing tips that'd be great.
I suggest marking out your stitching areas before you begin, either with thread or fabric pen/pencil

I've set a window of two weeks until the next pattern is selected, but that doesn't mean you have to have this one done by then! If you can, that's great...but if not, that's fine! Please, just go at your own pace!NMRaymond wrote:Yay! So, I've never participated in a stitchalong here - thankfully I checked the forum to find that it's only just begun.

Oh good, because even though I love stitching I'm kinda sinking a lot of time into the FFXII HD remake right now so my crafting speed is slow at the moment!

In fact, I've just turned it off to come and do some stitching before I go to bed!

Sadly, I don't think I'll have time for the stitch-a-long this year (I also still need to finish the one from two years ago!), but I absolutely love this pattern, so I may have to stitch it anyway. I can't wait to see everyone's SAL works come together. Good luck and have fun all!

Sooooo i've finished the first square. No pic yet since i'm lazy and I have a cat sitting on me, and the square lol. I think i'm gonna turn em into pocket wheat packs.
Working on:
Retro X & Y! - lost the pattern and fabric, but it's resurfaced ...and i've lost it again lol
Attempting Diamond Painting
Making like three crochet blankets at once #nolife
slowly amassing floss for the old-style Epic Pokemon

Re: Sprite Stitch SAL - Summer 2017
Wheat pack is a great idea I was thinking of a traditional sampler, but perhaps I'll make a new project bag instead (I keep filling them with WIPS)
WIPS: Dwarf Fortress blanket, sailing ship stitch, shiny pokemon, moth bags
