Hey Everyone. I was wondering if anyone would mind making this into a pattern. I was thinking of it being around 9in by 12in (22.9cm--30.5cm) but whatever works. And it looks like it'll arleady be more then 40 colors. But Im not to worried about that. I plan on this being my next big project.
Thank you very much!

I've kept to the size you wanted in both counts (please ignore the fact that it says 60cm width - this is a program error!). I would recommend stitching it on these higher counts as you will get in more detail at that size. If you want to stitch it on a lower count please say so and either myself or someone else here can do a pattern for that too. Hope that helps! :)

Oh Jesus, I didnt think I'd get a reply this soon. Thank you very much. That looks awesome. This'll be my first project in 22 count. So its a little daunting. But well worth it. :grin:

K. No problem. Be prepared to wait a bit though lol. If i found a better pic do you think that would cut back on the colors? Like instead of the .Jpeg if i found a .gif or .png? Like for each color section it would be solid til it got to the other one? Vs a transitioning and such?

Idk about the programs that make the patterns. Im still kind of new to all of this. Hehe if you couldnt tell. lol. Anyways thanks

Jpegs suck cos of the loss of definition when the image is compressed. If you could get a png (something like a screenshot from a dvd saved in the .png format) that would be a lot better and it might cut back on the colours but probably not by a lot. I couldn't say if the colours would be more solid without seeing the pic first though. If you can get one then post it here and I'll take a looksee! :D

I could try to reduce the number of colours and save it as a BMP or GIF if you like. We can tweak it to enhance the colours too.

Yes please,
That would be awesome if you could try doing that. And I think I was being a lil to adventurous with the scale that i wanted... :blush: so if it helps to cut back on the size then by all means go for it.
Thanks again Wolfix
