Can I Even Request This?

[jeala]

Alright. I'm a bit apprehensive to request this. But I'm having a really hard time getting my silouhette picture into a pattern. I've been trying to use the KG Chart program, and it always comes it like, 6ft by 4ft! D: So I was wondering if someone could put it into a pattern for me. If not, since it's a contest piece, that's fine. ^^

I want it about 8x10. . . and I'd only want the 2 colours for it. If it's possible, could you please tell me the how many stitches would be needed for 14 count and 16 count aida cloth? If the font doesn't work in a pattern, I'll get a different pic up. /noooooooooob!

I'm sorry to ask this. T.T Thanks for any help!

14 count - 112x140
16 count - 128x160

all you do is multiply aida count by inches you want...the aida count is the stitches PER inch.

and its perfectly ok to ask for a pattern made for a challenge!

i redid the image and sized it for 16 count aida. try putting that into your pattern program, it should come out the right size now. the font is kinda lame, but I didnt feel like hand drawing in a fancy font...you can check out some sites for font sets for cross stitch and do a more fluid looking font if you prefer your original style.

Thank you -so- much for helping me with this! It seems that I always have the images too big. Waaah, I wouldn't want anyone to have to hand draw fancy font anyways. And actually, now that I see just plain font, I really like it. this picture worked better this way in the program. Thank you for your help!

forever doesnt look centered either, so count that out and make sure you put it in the middle...

You must have a really good eye for that. o.o It was only a few stitches off!
