Huge Mario Cross Stitch- FINISby ~sgoheen06

Artisan Crafts / Textiles / Fiber Art

FINALLY!
And thanks to everyone who has waited so patiently and encouraged me so much! Who knows how long it wouldn't have taken me if you guys hadn't prodded me on so much!

Okay here's the approximate stats:
5 foot long x 2 foot tall
Size 14 aida (cornflower blue)
Approximately 200 hours
397 yards of 3-strand thread
About 23 skeins
Just under 50,000 stitches
15 colors and some metallic gold accents

Pictures not the highest quality in the world but I can upload some detail shots if anyone actually wants to see each individual stitch! lol Here's one: [link]

Yes I took some artistic liberty on some things. I admit it.

Heck, I even changed my pattern a couple of times after I started. Even after I had stitched some in a couple of places *wince* I hate taking out stitches! *shudder*

Design is mine but of course the characters are all Nintendo's.

That's awsome!
Did you ever release the pattern?

~sgoheen06 Jul 1, 2011 Hobbyist General Artist

Errr, I kind of drew the pattern on graph paper, lol, Might be fun to color in little bitty squares on the computer though. I'll put it on my list of stuff that's taking me forever to get done!

Right oh

Thanks

Wow. That is all I have to say about that.

As soon as I saw this, the ol' theme song started running through my brain... Superb job on this classic icon!
