Objection's almost done; E3 snowed me under way more than usual this year. Still hoping to bang out Pokémon too.

Your squares look great Jadely! I'm getting so excited to see this quilt, with such different games being stitched its going to be gorgeous!
Wish I had the moolah to bid on this years quilt, didnt last years go for around $2000? Wish I had that kinda dough laying around!
I would definitely try to get it, and love that its going to such a wonderful cause

I'm going to have to withdraw my square... after about 2000 stitches, the aida met with a fatal accident. :cray:

I'll adjust the sheet to reflect it.

This is tragic and we all feel your pain.

It's my own fault for keeping it in a plastic bag on my messy craft table instead of a ziploc or a hard container. Warp, stretch, ri-i-i-ip. It's only happened to me once before, when I packed a project to bring on a weekend trip. Believe me, I was about to cry, swear loudly, or both when I discovered it. I really wanted to make the opera scene. :(

But I've gotten a lot of enjoyment out of seeing everyone else's squares, and at least there are so many squares that there'll still be plenty left over!

newly registered board lurker here, but this sounds like an amazing idea! I'm signing up for one square. I doubt I will have time to accomplish more than that.

Don't feel bad, I'm going to have to withdraw my second square due to it having an unfortunate encounter with my kitten's bladder. :cry: I shall also adjust the sheet to reflect this change.

Oh my. It's terrible when accidents happen to pieces. I'm just sorry we won't get to see what they would have been like!
I do think we'll still be able to make a decent quilt though, so it'll be ok!

Have to drop out. :'( I just don't have the time. Already took my name off the spreadsheet. I look forward to seeing the results of everyone's hard work, though!
