As does a summer theme. Still, rugged up in winter is probably a good time to dream of beaches.

I like the idea of a magnet/keychain/small project theme.

Or possibly a theme along the lines of cake, as seen through many different games

Dessert magnet/keychain? Since that is what summer is all about? Although the poor people in the Southern Hemisphere are headed to winter.

Dessert as interpreted by video game world.

Does that mean I could tell you all I'm going to make some Cake ones. And then DON'T submit anything for my submission.

I would love a something-small challenge. No bigger than, say, 30 or 40 pixels high or wide per piece? Otherwise I will never get my charity quilt square done (or any of my homework, for that matter). :cry:

(wah wah wah, I know :D )
Current Project(s): How much time do you have? LOL

I like the idea of three little magnets.

I also like the idea of making them a series of items instead of characters.

We could do a video game quote. It would just require some back stitching and maybe a sprite to go with it!
-- examples
Mario -- "It's-a me, Mario!" or "So long-ee, Bowser!"

Final fantasy -- Chocobo: Wark! or Tonberry: Doink!

Zelda -Ganondorf-- Do not think this ends here...The history of light and shadow will be written in blood!

Ōkami--Issun"A handsome guy like me should never be covered in wolf slobber!"

Here are the top 30 games.........
