Portal Icons Request
Hi everyone! My 1-year anniversary is coming up and my boyfriend and I literally met through the game Portal. We were both singers in the UMD Gamer Symphony Orchestra, and he had played the game, and I hadn't. So when we were doing Still Alive, I thinking "WTF is this song about?" searched the game, wanted to to play. We talked about the game a bit, and I hinted "If you ever have time, maybe I could come over and play?" I wasn't coming on strong at all.
Long story short, I'd like to cross stitch him a little portal design. I would be my first completed cross stitch, so I want to do a bookmark because it's nice and small and I can probably finish it before the 19th even with my limited skills. I found a cute companion cube design that I'll be putting on one side, but I want some of the icons to be on the other.
Can someone make these into patterns for me? Since it's a bookmark, I'd like them to not be any bigger than 2x2 inches each.
Thank you SO much for your help!

Re: Portal Icons Request
Are you able to tell us the count of the fabric you are using? It would be helpful so that we can make each icon 2 inches square.

Re: Portal Icons Request
Thread count is blocks per inch, right? I measured it with a ruler and I can fit 13 cross stitches in an inch. So I guess that is 13-count? So I guess 2 inches would be 26 stitches wide/tall, but it is easier to go up to thirty stitches wide or anything like that, that's fine too. I should also point out that I won't be stitching those black borders, so the details inside could be made a bit bigger if that makes it work better.
Thanks so much for your help!

Re: Portal Icons Request
I hope these are ok for you, I had to do quite a bit of editing on them to make them look right once I had resized them. I haven't bothered to put a colour chart up this time, you just use black and white thread or any other colours you fancy using.
