Hey guys,
Would someone be kind enough to do this for me?
Around 150-200 stitches wide? Simple colours? And a PDF?
I know it's a tall order! But MEGA thank you in advance!

Hi~ I love SpongeBob so I decided to try making the pattern. I'm kinda new at pattern making so if it's not up to standard, please let me know. I won't be offended.
You didn't specify a count, so I left it at the default 18-count with 1-over-1 stitching. Only 15,000 stitches in 11 colors~

Good idea!
But it's a tad too big for me... O.o
Is it possible to make it smaller? like, half the size thats on there?
i'll probably use 16 count AIDA
thanks!

Well, I attempted it. It lost detail and I'm sure this could be remedied by backstitching the outline instead of cross-stitching~
It's down to 100x76 on 16 count, 1-over-1. Still 11 colors but ~4000 stitches.

@spinuntilyoufall ~ Why, thank you very much!
@HelloCloe ~ omygosh, you're already stitching it!! Let me know if there's anything weird with the pattern; I'm not very good at knowing what the actual stitched project will look like. ^^;;

thanks so much!
i dont think it will be that much of a problem - losing detail. after all he is a cartoon, with big blocky colours. i think it will do just fine!
thanks again!

Progress!! ^_^
So far, it looks amazing. Only had to amend a few stitches here or there, but nothing major. Love it! Thank you so much! :-3
