I am an experienced cross stitcher but have never created my own pattern. Flashback was one of my favourite games on the mega Drive and I would love to do a cross stitch of this image. Can anyone help? Anchor thread is more available for me but DMC would be ok too.
Love this site!!

Any chance you can find a better picture that isn't a jpeg? Try to find a .png, .gif or  bmp file. Jpegs leave fragments from the compression which messes up the picture when they are put through a pattern program.

Re: Flashback pattern request
Well.....
I've tried doing this myself on both cross stitch programs but cant get the detail right....and the colours are not perfect.
Any advice greatly appreciated!
