JUNE/JULY Challenge - Royalty!

[Miss Clawful]

Oh, forgot about that. One day, going through one of my self destructive phases I deleted all of my posts in Facebook, my YouTube channel, all of my photos I had stored online, several other details, I forget. I have depression issues. Just uploaded all of my photos again day before yesterday so maybe when I get around to it I'll link everything back up again. Sorry 'bout that.

I really just want to see the progression from the Merle sprite to the Peach one!

That I can do.

All edits I have saved from Merle to final version of Toadstool (upper left to lower right):

Don't know if silly question or not, but when I saw the challenge, knew instantly who to do. Is there anything against doing a project of a royal character with a non royal, like a pairing? Have one pattern made, but if it's royalty *only*, have another idea I could maybe get done in time.

I can't see any of your pictures Clawful.


I really need some ideas or a flash of inspiration

[Miss Clawful]

Have no idea why. I can see them, even logged out and still can. I take it that its just my pics you can't see?

Sorry for delay in replying, been a bit poorly again!

I don't see a problem with your idea at all - have at it! I'm interested to see what you come up with!

I stitched my favorite royal character, King Hippo, and brought him to the his natural habitat, near the water front. I've also decided that I enjoyed bringing King Hippo around with me, so I've created an Instagram account for him @king.hippo . You can fallow his daily activity if you are so inclined.

Everyone has posted such cute crafts! Here's my entry. I modified this pattern from Daily Cross Stitch (Mother Nature) to be Princess Zelda. In my mind, the purple "vines" are her tendrils of magic (or something ). I modeled the colors after Twilight Princess Zelda who is my fave, so a lot of dusty colors.

Hope you enjoy!

On my copy of Hyrule Historia for extra nerd points!

So I made a less colorful version of this, then realized that the arches look like windows, so I made the one pictured below so it's like stained glass. THEN I realized I could do a triptych instead of a diptych and contacted the spriter about doing a Rosalina one for me. Sooooo, here's the diptych with Peach and Daisy, and a pattern of the triptych except missing Rosalina. If the artist responds favorably, I'll update the pattern and put it in the patterns forum.

I'm trying to be more active here on Sprite Stitch, and I've started using the #spritestitch on Instagram. If myself and others do it, maybe it'll make the blog and forum here a little more active in general?
