Yes please!! This will make doing my own tree a lot easier!
I will finish up the 2 groups of mario sprites I have left to do sometime this week/weekend and get them all posted up in the patterns forum. There are lots to choose from with the group I have.

Man, kids these days have it so easy with their HDMIs and their iPeeds and their SMS text messaging. I remember when we had to jiggle the RF connector on the back of the TV to make the connection work! Uphill! In the snow!
Mostly hibernating here. Find me on Twitter @rmdcade.

LOL RMDC! I might only be 34, but I am pretty sure I remember having to wiggle connections to make them work too. Still do sometimes on our craptacular tv... He doens't have an ipad/pod and he really doesn't do much in the way of messaging.. He has his own laptop where he plays things like Team Fortress 2, Portal, Minecraft, Garry's Mod, and a whole butt load of others I don't even know... He does have a steam acct where he plays most stuff. But he does occasionally play on the Wii which has all the old Marios and LoZ games that are available in the virtual games shop. He also sometimes plays the playstation 2 we have and an old N64.

I had to get up in the morning at 10 o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work 29 hours a day down mill and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our dad would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah.

Reading this conversation, that was the first thing I thought of.

Thank you so much my friend. You just made me smile on an otherwise * day. Never stop being you.

I've never tried using felt on the back of my projects, I either stitch very carefully so the back looks like the front reversed, or I actually stitch the pattern reversed, or I use a blank coloured plastic canvas.
I have a little tree that could be put to use next year with some orna-sprites. Hmm..

It's great having like minded folk around!
Currently attempting: Epic Pokemon Cross Stitch Gen I, M'aiq the Liar
Knitting - Fusion in Paris
This is exactly what I want to get done some year for our place since the cats wouldn't be able to immediately break them all (maybe chase them all over the floor and push them under the couch but still). You've definitely got the right idea in starting them now.....the procrastinator in me it always like - you have plenty of time! December 24 rolls around and I am without a geek tree again. Lovely work.
Also, you guys crack me up.
Current projects:
Leftover swap gifts
HP House Scarves
Secret of Mana charity square
Vid game advent calendar
Thank you Boo! I am working on another round of ornaments right now working to finish up the LoZ ones and then am going to work on some of the other semi-obscure ones, and then go back to some more Mario ones... It's going to be a Mario heavy tree....
