I did it! I finished the Epic Super Mario Cross Stitch I started nearly 10 months ago. To recap:
I got the pattern here, on Sprite Stitch. I started on February 23rd 2008, and finished on December 8th 2008.
It measures 200 x 150 stitches, and was stitched on even weave, over one (I know I should have done over two, but this is my first cross stitch…).
I used one strand of DMC. The colors I used were:
310 – Black
White
221 – Dark red (bricks)
906 – Light green
950 – Pink (for the light touches on the bricks)
434 – Brown
699 – Dark green
321 – Red
3823 – Broken white
995 – Blue (two skeins)
740 – Orange.

This is my, Sara's personal blog where I will post stuff about gaming (Nintendo DS and Wii), cross stitching, amigurumi, things I like, things I've done, etc etc. I live in The Netherlands, but I will blog in English for my international friends on the internet. Have fun and leave a comment or two!
