Definitely. It doesn't have to be whole stitches. If you want to make a more complicated pattern, then half stitches may be required. Just make sure the entire 96x96 area is filled completely with stitches. So the other side of the half stitch must be stitched as well.

Also, make sure you sign yourself up after choosing your square. The one square per game doesn't mean if someone has chosen Portal 1 you can't make a square from Portal 2, they are different games.

I am so excited, there are so many great squares out there!

Maybe I'll stitch both Monkey Island patterns and see which one I like better then. I can always frame or gift the other one...

I'm digging all the positive vibes on this project! I'm actually excited to do this and it's been a while since I've been excited about cross-stitching!!

I signed up. :3 I am so excited!! But I do need help with the pattern. I got it the right size, just need help fixing up the colours. (I'll post this in the pattern request forum too)

Thanks! And I can't wait to start it!! :D

Here's what my block looks like after cleaning it up for two days. If any of you experienced pattern makers have suggestions for me, I'll take them happily.

I've already started working on it and I'm planning to have some great holidays with this project and season 6 of Bones being finally on Netflix! :grin:

I was thinking that I might do the banners at the beginning when choosing a character.
Would somebody be able to turn that in to a pattern for me possibly please?
I'm thinking Im just going to do a black background to it though rather than trying to get the tree :secret

I love that picture. Yes, Android games would be fine! If someone makes an Angry Birds, that would definitely be appropriate. The only requirement is it be from a video game and something from the actual game.

Great idea MsStitcher! I am not that good at making patterns yet, but hopefully someone can do that for you.

Thank you :D I thought it would be quite a good representation of the game and I've got plenty of time to get it done. I've been telling everyone I know (and who will listen) about ChildsPlay!
