Psylocke

Last day of the year, last stitching of the year! It's Psylocke of the X-Men. The sprite is from the SNES game X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse and was stitched in Hollywood, Florida during my Christmas vacation.  It's amazing how much one can stitch when one is ill and has access to Netflix. I should be used to stitching solid blocks of colour since starting the Hogwarts Crest pattern but it was brutal filling in all that brown for the background.

The Gryffindor section of my Hogwarts Crest is almost complete as well. I would say I would have an update next week but I did buy upwards of seven games during Boxing Week... >_> Damn you, XBLA.

Happy New Year, everyone! =]

For Hufflepuff, hard workers were most worthy of admission

Here is the third update for Little Mojo's Hogwarts Crest pattern. I finished the Hufflepuff part quicker than I thought I would, having to pause and stitch other things. For the rest of December, I will likely not get very much done. I will be traveling to Florida for xmas to visit family and will not stitch too often. I will try to stitch a new pattern on the 8-10 hour flights. I bought a thread cutter made by DMC that is supposedly "safe for travel." Hopefully it does not get confiscated. =] The new pattern will be an X-Men piece to go with Gambit and Wolverine.

December 2010 TUSAL

I went out and picked up a couple of clear xmas bulbs for this year's final TUSAL. Sorry for the kind of lame photo this time. It gets so dark here so fast and I have no xmas tree inside yet. =[ Needless to say, the lighting is not great and the bulbs give off a lot of glare in the first place.
TUSAL Jar Bulbs Contents: Terra & Esper Terra, Rozalin, Poison Ivy, Majora's Mask Trio, Hogwarts Crest, Radiohead Bear, Spider-Man Wedding Annoucement

Commission: Spider-Man Wedding Announcement

My first commission is complete. Exciting. =] This sprite was kind of a pain because there is a limited range of dark reds and blues in DMC colours. I had to manually edit this sprite quite a bit but I think it turned out fine. I mostly relied on KG-Chart for once. I tend to prefer PCStitch but KG-Chart gave me better initial colours to play with.
