Koholint Island

Post by Lykainion »

Hi everyone! Welcome to my project Koholint Island. It's going to be the whole map, complete with enemies and items, very detailed and lovingly stitched. I was inspired to take on this project when I was browsing this website actually. When the map is done it will be at least 91 inches wide and 73 inches high, on 28 even weave with only one strand. Also, it'll be a few years :P

Sorry about the awful quality of the photo, I don't have a camera so I'm using my webcam.

I will be updating every Sunday!

That's a heck of a project to take on! :shock: But if you complete it, you will be a living god, so perhaps the reward is worth the risk. I'm looking forward to updates.

And welcome to the board! :nod

I don't have the patience to do something that big. BUT I think things like this are amazing. Looking forward to WIP pics.

Thanks RMDC! I've found that cross stitching is incredibly relaxing, so patience isn't much of a problem. I'm hoping that I'll be starting the second page by the end of this week.
