I wanted to make this for you but last night I sprained and/or broke my left index finger :cry:

My in-laws are coming this weekend so if no one else gets to it I'll attempt it then.

I'm going to do it tonight after work (yeah for sprained finger not broken). I tried this afternoon but I'm going to have to go pixel by pixel to make it nice and also probably a little back stitching. I think it's going to be about 45 stitches x 45 stitches but I'll try smaller. If I cheat a little on the tail I can definitely get it down to 45 stitches tall by 35 or 40 stitches wide.

Done!
Looks like this:

Two things you need to know:
1. If you want a simpler pattern colour wise you could use the same colour for Z (963) and / (3716). The result will just have less shading.
2. The preview pic doesn't have back stitching around the eyes but the pattern does. I have a feeling that the final product may need back stitching but you should be able to tell when you are almost done stitching so I added it as a guide.

I'm not totally happy with the colours so please pick your own!
