Yes that is perfect! That's the one I was thinking of but my google-fu failed me and I could not find a pic of it.
I already started the sky on the Scyther/Pinsir patch so it's too late for mine but as was pointed out we have a couple of other green pokemon that need more contrast (bulbasaur + evos, etc). I'm not suggesting that anyone change what they already are working on - just that for those where the grass/sky/water don't work use the dirt :)

It's not a big deal to have only 3-4 "dirt" BGs - quilts often have a color or two that *pops* to make it more interesting.

@riotpatch - try using the "dirt" for the BG on the cubone/marowack - it should work pretty well.

Blocking out the sky - shows how I block out an area that's all one color with half-stitches before filling it in.

Back - which is no where as neat as it should be - too many color changes.

I can send you high res versions of mine if you want BMH.... the low res ones are in the spoilers in my last post.
Send me a PM if you want them. Oh and I'm from California, USA

It's fine kuja.girl, those ones you posted will be ok. I will want good quality / high res photos of the completed patches though :D

I'll be looking out for WIPs from those who haven't already posted any ^^

It's awesome BMH! Do we want a forum there?

I've got a little bit more work to do today and I'll post a WIP. Should I just send the WIP to the email address for the PPG? Or do you want the WIP here?

Thanks, I'm glad you like it!

Fae, just post it here, since we all check here regularly it'd be easier. And I can just snag it directly from the thread :D
About having our own forums - I don't think we really need that yet, but I will look into it in case we do (being futureproof is always good). However, I think Sprite Stitch is the best place to keep a thread going right now since that's where this project started ^_^
