Ys
Posted: Mon Jul 01, 2013 1:24 am
I'm making a video game quit for my son & am planning to make it up from a mix of cross stitch & custom-printed fabric. I'd like to feature a variety of characters & maps from assorted games. One of the ones I'd like to feature is Ys (have lots of good memories playing it on the old Sega system!). So I was wondering if anyone out there would be willing to make up a pattern for me please?
I've attached a pic from the start up screen (this one is from the computer version but it's slightly more detailed than the old 8-bit version). I'd like to stitch it on 14 count black aida (14 count is the only black I can easily get locally). Ideally I'd like it to be around 20-30cm wide or thereabouts but if it's not looking good quality-wise, I don't mind if it goes bigger, simply to get a good looking image. ***edited to add***: I found some nice 28-count black evenweave locally which I think will give a nicer finish & I think I'll use that rather than the aida I mentioned before. I normally stitch over-2 for evenweave (so would still be 14 count) but could do over-1 if it will result in higher detail (but less size). Whatever works out better.
I'm on a Mac, so a pdf of the pattern is the only format I can currently use (as most of the stitching software won't work on a Mac).
Thanks so, so much for any help!
