Don't see why not, as long as it is 96x96 on 16ct. Cropped and/or resized pics are totally acceptable!
Awesome! :D


PS. Am I the only one who can't see Boo's pictures? :confused:

My mom is wanting to do a square so I made up a pattern for her from Zero Wing. I was wondering if is recognizable enough to do.

Think I've got my pattern finalized. From Advance wars 2.
Crud, I just realized that the rocket units I'm stitching look the same in both advance wars 1 and 2. Does this violate the requirement that you have to be able to tell exactly which game it came from?

My mom's doing a square, too!!! She's working on the scene that I chose from Harvest Moon: A New Beginning.

Both of my squares are now officially "In Progress"...now if I could just get over this bug so I have more energy to stitch during the weekends :club:

You should be able to tell that they are from different games.

Any news on this Boo? They're still not showing for me :p


Ps. I used to have a friend called Boo, never knew his real name. It's so strange to be calling someone Boo again, plus nostalgic, we had some great parties etc! :D

Quick question- I'm on my pad so I might have missed someone else asking it- I got my Aida, and it measures 5 3/4" high and 6" wide. Is this ok? I seem to recall it being ok but at about the limit of what was allowable last year, but I just want to make sure.

If it's all good, I'll be able to get started on my square in a couple of weeks- need to finish off a bolero cardigan and a vest for niece and BFF respectively ;) (and finish off means stop procrastinating of course lol.)
Working on:
Retro X & Y! - lost the pattern and fabric, but it's resurfaced :D ...and i've lost it again lol

The total size of the aida has to be at least 13 x 13 inches so that it can be trimmed for quilting. Your image should be 6 x 6 inches when stitched (I'm using the first post as a reference)
