Just wondering if any of you nice people could make a We Happy Few pattern for me. I've tried plugging the image in to a couple of free pattern makers but it always comes out super blurry. Thanks!!

Here's the image: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ ... w_logo.jpg

For the size, I'd say around 15x9 I suppose, on 14 count.

I didn't see your edit until now so I'm sorry about the delay! I charted it to 15x9 on 14 count including the black background, so the design is 8.86"x7.5"! The full size is on the .STH, but I cropped it in the PDF so you don't have to print / look at 8 pages where two 2 pages are blank.

I tried to simulate the curves of the letters, but it didn't work out in a lot of places. It should be pretty easy to remove/add stitches though! I tried to pick out the colors using my computer screen so hopefully they are close to what you were looking for!

Progress report:

I know it's a bit all over the place, but that's usually how I stitch. It's taking me a bit longer than I had hoped, the fabric is proving difficult. It's Damask aida, which I've never used before. Very hard to see the holes T_T

Looking good! Just wondering though do most people half stitch then go back along and complete the stitches? I always tne ddo just do full stitches as I go along.

It completely slipped my mind to post my finished project. The guy I was making it for didn't want it framed, he uses it as a mouse pad :cry:
