Stitching for Charity! (brainstorming)

[Yurtle]

Thanks!

I only have the white areas left on my Bowser square...so close!! After that, I'll be able to start on the PvZ one! I'm so excited to do that one! And no black in site!!!

Of course, I should probably finish one of my Pokemon squares for that other quilt first...

Are there any squares left to do? I'm really interested in helping.

You'll have to check with Crabbyman and the google docs (somewhere in this thread, lol) but I'm sure there's room for another helper...especially since a couple of people have had to pull out

My Fiance and I were both hoping to do this, but I don't think we'll have the time anymore. His brother's wedding is coming up, and then we'll be spending 2 months focusing on ours and finished the necessary arrangements, and then after ours, is my brothers.. then christmas shortly after that. If we do this again for next year as well, maybe we'll be able to join in then.

I think there's always room for more!(as long as you're sure you can finish by August) Here are the links to the google docs so you can sign up wherever you want.

Zelda https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key ... l=en#gid=0
Final Fantasy https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key ... l=en#gid=0

And here are the guidelines too.
16 count white/off-white (no colored) aida
6"x6" (96x96 stitches) working space
We need at least 4.5" border on each side so:
at LEAST 15"x15" total canvas size
Also, plan on sending at least $2-$3 per square to cover the cost of quilting materials

I can't wait to see this done, everyone's squares are looking great so far!

As promised, here's my latest finished square, FFX Shiva! (Needs to be washed etc but I will get around to that soon.)

Spoiler

137 colours, definitely my most ambitious square. I'm so pleased it's finally done - took me about 3 weeks of almost solid stitching and I managed to damage my shoulder while doing it :O
And...I've started my next square! FFVIII Rinoa (There'll be pics when there's more to look at than a bunch of white stitches!)

Please let me know what you all think of Shiva. ^^

Wow! That is just so beautiful! I love all the blues!! Amazing job! My mario just looks so basic next to that!

[crabbyman]

Wow, that Shiva is amazing! I can't even figure out how you got 137 colors on that little patch of cloth.

[tnitnetny]

I completely agree. The Shiva is AWESOME! I am so excited to see these squares in person. I am itching to get started putting them together!

[blackmageheart]

Hehe, thanks all!

My mario just looks so basic next to that!

Mario's still the man, though

I can't even figure out how you got 137 colors on that little patch of cloth.

Most of the colours only had one or two stitches, all the changes made the back quite untidy lol.

I am itching to get started putting them together!

Me too! Well, I'm excited for you to start putting them together

Wow BMH, just wow. Amazing work as ever, you do like to make us look bad don't you?
