Final Fantasy Project: Pondering the "Next One"

[rosey175]

I was just wondering last night where you'd gone! Planning on making a comeback?

Yesh, although it's more like a slow oozing back into things~ This winter has turned me into a slug!

Three hours in; which one is it!

So far, it's (mostly) half-stitches so I can get a feel for the colors and where to gradient. Also, trying to get the floss colors to show up correctly in a cell phone picture is an impossible task for me. But YAY STARTED NEXT ONE!

I'm going to guess FF III!

Indeed, it is FF III! I used the DS remake logo because I am 1) currently playing it lol and 2) trying to keep the projects similar -- so the older logos will be the remake versions~

17 hours in! Apologies again for the potato photo. The colors are very dark in the picture. Aaand I had to pick out the bottom section early on as I discovered I mysteriously accounted for four stitches that weren't stitched. Since they would've messed up the lettering, I couldn't politely ignore the mistake. Buuuu.

Hi, Sprite Stitch, it's been such a long while! I thought if some of you remembered this project, you'd be interested in an update...

Stitching III took a lot longer than it should have but it was finally finished (only four years later )! I feel like I learned a lot after working on it for so long (#1 mistakes demoralize me for months so FIX THEM aaaaa, #2 this fabric was the worst I've ever used) so hopefully things will go better! If I recall correctly, the fabric for VII was bought at an actual cross-stitch store while I found VIII and III's in thrift stores. VIIIs fabric was not bad at all but III was stitched on Regency hardanger and I will never use it again.

I love how the gradient turned out in III with four colors of floss! Luneth's face also got stabbed and restabbed a bunch ahaha. It lined up with a color change plus faces are scary to stitch!

I got these two framed at the same time because it was so exciting being finished with III and it was (way past) time to get VIII done. Since we've moved, I went to a different framer for these and it was not exactly a wonderful experience. I'll be taking future ones (and these to try to fix) to the one who did VII. It's a long drive (200 miles) which is why I didn't just save these to have her do them. Maybe III was just cursed hah.

On to the next one!

They look fantastic!!! Hopefully there will be less challenges with the future ones!

Thank you for updating. I joined after you last posted, but it's still really cool to see the finished logos.

Ahh, III looks wonderful!
