Apparently I underestimated how much free time I would have. Took my name off the spreadsheet and I'll save it for next year. :( Silly real life things getting in the way of my crafting time! That and a friend of mine is having post issues lately so I wouldn't trust it to get there in time anyways. Harrumph.

Ok I'm done with my 6 squares....yahoo! :yahoo: But one of them turned out awful. So I might try and do one more before deadline. Since I live stateside as long as I mail them by 8/22 they will def get there on time.

I will post the pics here in a little bit and you guys can let me know what you think about the 5th square.

Thank you! I'm having a bit of issue with downloading my pics so it may be a little longer with those pics....in the meantime what do you guys think of the following for a super smash bros. brawl square?

Quick question.. My square is almost done and will be ready for the mail tomorrow, and I wanted to know what are you all sending your squares in? I'm sure those of you with lots of squares are using a box but what about those of you who only have one or two to send? Are you using a small box or are you using an envelope?

@gamerwolff - I'd say do the Pikachu or the Link battle!

@SofaraStarfyre - Last year I mailed my 5 pieces flat between pieces of cardboard. I didn't see the need for a box even with a lot of squares. Actually, now I think about it, a mailing tube might be the best way to send them! (Might get one myself!)

I love the last two. I think they are very striking!

I mailed my patches in a bubble envelope! :) No cardboard or boxes for me!

I vote Pikachu as well - though I hope you'll release them all as patterns for the board to play with. :nod
