My take on the Epic Pokemon Cross stitch challenge!

I have realised my aida isn't wide enough so there will be some fabric overlap when I get to Blastoise!

I don't have all the patterns so I am just doing the ones that I have till I have perfected the other patterns.

This challenge is more my style because once each Pokemon is finished I feel like I have completed a whole piece :)

These are amazing - did you generate the patterns yourself?

No, these are made by birdiestitching however she only made a few of them so I have another post in Video game requests that I have generated the rest.

Although some do need a little bit of editing because they aren't quite right yet!

That is several levels above epic and into the realms of insanity :P How are you laying it out - one giant block, several strips or pieces, tapestry the length of the house?

The way that I wanted to lay it out was like the poster I had as a kid with the top row ending in caterpie... But the width isn't enough. So, I am getting another bit of fabric to overlap so I can fit thd last two coloumns in.

Yes I agree. It is insanity. I started this in April and have only just got to Wartortle!

The white is done! It was horrible and I'm glad it is over!

Ive always loved Wartortle's eyes :)This navy colour really makes the outline stand out!

I know! I have never stitched quicker than this lap stand :)
