Sprite Stitch Board!

I have been interested in making things from perler beads for quite awhile now and its finally time to actually get down to business. I know that you can make projects that are bigger than one pegboard. My question is how do you iron the project together? Do you get interlocking pegboards or is there another way to do it? I know that if you just put the pegboards up against each other the beads dont touch from one pegboard to another so there is no way they can iron together. Any advice would be super helpful....thanks

Don't worry, all of the pegboards interlock!

Thanks...time to get my perler beading on then!!!!

I wouldn't say all pegboards interlock.
But if you see some strange larger pegs sticking out in another direction than the many smaller pegs on your pegboard, I guess you can be quite sure they can be interlocked
Anyway. If you don't have any that can be interlocked... no worry.
This is how I would do:
1. Do as much of the sprite that fit on the board
2. Do some quick ironing, just so that the beads hold together
3. Move the ironed beads, but keep some of them on the board so everything lines up
4. Repeat 1-3
5. Move the completed sprite to a hard, flat, heat resistant surface
6. Remember to put that baking... paper both above AND under the perler beads
7. Iron as hell
8. Put another hard, flat, heat resistant surface and some weights on top
9. Let it cool down for a while
10. You'll have the best looking perler bead-figures in your neighbourhood. Promise.

Sorry, the pegboards I use interlock. They're the only ones I've ever seen anyone use.

Hihi well, now you know one who doesn't
