It's me again... I have a new wish. I'd like to cross stitch some of my favorite paintings to decorate my home (when works are over). I don't know when I'll do it (probably not before next year), but I like to do a few patterns when I have some spare time. I'll put them here, in case of you're interested too...
Here are the first ones :
Marylin Monroe, by Andy Warhol
120 * 120 sts, 30 colors
Girl with Hair Ribbon, by Roy Lichtenstein
120 * 120 sts, 24 colors
Don't hesitate to tell me what you think, if you have any opinion or maybe advice... or even, if you want a pattern from another artist's paintings !

"Vitruvian Man" comes in at about 14 1/4 inches on 14 count and just over 11 inches on 18 count.
I know I'll never actually stitch it, but even so, I'm already plotting out the frame and matting.
