Luigi and Daisy

I really, really want to make my boyfriend a framed art thing for Christmas, and considering how easily distracted I am with things, I figured now would be a good time to start it! I can't find anything with Luigi and Daisy, since the two aren't actually an official couple via Nintendo. All I have been able to find are fan art pictures, which if done well I am actually ok with. I want this to be framed like I said, and medium sized when completed. I would just need to know what count fabric to purchase. I am not a beginner, but the fewer colors that it could be without it starting to look weird would be great. I am also thinking about putting some Mario sprites around the edges as a border, but am not sure...

This is the picture I love the most:

I do now have KG-Chart.

I really appreciate this, and hope someone can help me! :Luigi

Tada! Hope 58 (I think) colours isn't too many, but it's at an ok size. If it's too big or whatever, just say ^^

I love it! It looks great! The size is just perfect! I kinda wish there were fewer colors, like around 20-30... but, the fact that you did it in the first place is what truly makes me appreciate! thank you so much! I cannot wait to start it, and I know that my boyfriend will absolutely love it! thanks so much again! :Luigi :nod

You can try to hand-edit the colors down to 20-30 because a lot of them are similar. That's the problem with .jpg files, there is a bit of anti-aliasing and blurring between color groups. If I didn't have finals this week, I'd try and clean it up for you. Good luck! :Luigi

Currently cleaning it up now (taking a break from writing a paper...) so didn't realise just how many colours with 2/3 stitches there was... Hopefully posting a new version sometime today (depending how quickly I write this paper... /sigh)

Edit: Woo done! Down to 27 colours!

I'm pretty happy with how this turned out ^^ So glad I went back (thanks go to Cerity for that!), because it'd used a colour which doesn't look like a skin tone in real life to me... (3855...)

Great job, Caiella! The pattern is just so adorable, I'm glad it was made more manageable :peach

That's awesome! Thanks sooooo much! I actually went out and bought all 58 colors last night, but I am totally ok with returning some of them to make it easier! Again, thanks so much! It looks soooo cute! I can't wait to get started on it! :Luigi

Daisy's relationship with Luigi is fake, as well as Peach's relationship with Mario. It's only to hide that the Princesses are in love with each other. <3

uh... I don't think so...

This is the info I was finding for Daisy.

It says that Luigi has feelings for her, but nothing about them actually going out. I love Daisy, and always use her as a character if possible! :Luigi
