Sailor Moon Vector- making a pattern

:confused: I'm really really hoping to make these amazing Sailor Moon images into cross stitch patterns so I can gift them to my sister on her birthday. I've been trying to do it myself but have had a lot of trouble so I would really appreciate any help! :good:

I'm hoping to have them on 16 count aida, and under 4 inches wide/tall as I have 4 inch hoops I was going to have them each displayed in.

I just would need the sailor scouts and Tuxedo Mask, if possible. :D

If you can wait a few more days, I'll give these a go - I'd do it sooner but I have work! Of course, if someone else does these in the meantime then that's good too!

I can absolutely wait on it, I would really appreciate you giving it a try. If 4 inches is too small, than I can do up to 6 inches if needed and I dont need the backgrounds, just the main image because I'm planning on doing it on black or navy aida to give it a background that way. Thank you so much!

I'm so sorry for your extended wait - I've been rather unwell lately and haven't been able to do anything stitch related. I will be getting back to it as soon as I can, hopefully this weekend!

Health and wellness always come first, I hope you get better soon and can wait as long as needed. :)

Thanks for the wait. I had a go at these, got annoyed so did your Trico (which was much easier, haha!) and came back to these. I don't think there's any way I can fit these into a 4 inch hoop without them turning into a complete blob, especially the taller ones. I considered doing just the heads and cropping off the sailor collars/bows but honestly it looks a bit weird. Not sure what to do, here...but I do have a very large bunch of senshi sprites from various games, if something like that would help?

Thank you for taking the time to try these ones, do you think going up to 6 inch hoops would help them not turn out to be a blob? If not then I can probably make the sprites work, I just really liked the way these looked and was hoping they would work out but I know not everything tranfers to patterns well.

Less blobby, definitely - but still really undefined shapes. They'd probably look nice in a 12" hoop, but that's a bit of a big project when you have a birthday deadline! Sprites are obviously an option for you, but the only other thing I can really think of to do is possibly the senshi symbols from the vectors above? Would have to invent one for Tuxedo Mask though!
