Pom Poko - Large Studio Ghibli Cross stitch design

Pom Poko - Large Studio Ghibli Cross stitch design

This is a Cross stitch design of several characters from Pom Poko. In this scene they are happily singing about food to keep their minds off the current situation but I shall not say any more to avoid too many spoilers

This is going to be a super long post today Just keep scrolling down for more pieces of the pattern.

The above is the design without the grid. It is such a large design that I think that a overview of the design was needed.
I tried to reduce the design to as few shades of brown/grey as I could so in some cases the colours of the characters are slightly off as I tried not to use new shades for each character instead reusing as many as I could.

Below are the charts in black and white symbols to help you figure it out. But first heres a colour key

Symbol in black and white chart	DMC Number	Anchor Number
	310	403
	3799	236
	842	1080
	522	860
	935	861
	613	831
	781	309
	3011	846
	370	856
	3371	382
	317	400
	605	1094
	612	832
	304	19
	5200	1
	839	1086

This design was drawn originally with Anchor colours in my program. Use anchor threads to get the closest match. I used a conversion chart to get the DMC numbers.

There are 6 pieces to this design which should be laid out like this:

  

Piece 1 Top Left

Piece 2 Top Middle

Piece 3 Top Right

Piece 4 Bottom Left

Piece 5 Bottom Middle

Piece 6 Bottom Right

Fathers day heart cross stitch design

Fathers day heart cross stitch design

Happy Easter Everyone. I'm posting a Fathers day design a little early because this one is larger than a card so may need a little time to finish.
The Black border is optional on this design. You may wish to leave it off so you can see the words forming the heart shape on their own.
For the thread colours I'd recommend picking a variety of colours that your Father likes or ones that match his favourite chair if you choose to make this design into a cushion. 

When designing this I thought of many lovely things I could use to describe my own Dad and of course added many words which i could use to refer to him by. 
Do you like this concept? Should I make a mothers day version or a version for another type of holiday? Please feel free to let me know in the comments

This is a cross stitch design of the latest addition to the Eevee evolution line Sylveon.

Not only is sylveon very cute it is also an example of the new fairy type pokemon. I have not yet gotten far enough in the game to get an eevee but when I do I am so training a Sylveon. I also like the shiny variation of this pokemon. Its a very simple change the pink and blue areas on the pokemon are reversed but that looks very nice. (much better than the many pokemon who seem to turn green when shiny)

Something which is very interesting is that to evolve an Eevee into Sylveon the player must use the Pokemon Ame minigames to increase its affection. (please note that affection is a very different stat to Happiness seen in previous games and has different effects) But don't feel daunted that Sylveon is still within reach the minigame is very easy. It is simply a case of rub the bottom screen with your stylus to pet the pokemon. The pokemon will have a happy face if it likes the area being petted and look concerned, worried or angry if you are touching an area it does not like. For example my lovely Beedril hates having its stingers touched and will make an attack stance at the screen to show its dislike. There are also minigames to play which ear Pokepuffs which are just little cakes. Each cake will also increase the pokemons affection but they will not eat it if they are full. Thats easy to tell too. The pokemon will turn its face away from the pokepuff if it does not wish to eat it. But come back later and it may be hungry again.

Pinkie Pie in a Chicken suit - My Little pony Cross stitch design

Pinkie Pie in a Chicken suit - My Little pony Cross stitch design

Here's a cross stitch design of Pinkie pie in her Chicken suit for Nightmare Night. I know its nowhere near Halloween but when this design got suggested to me I just had to make it a post before Easter. I wonder if Pinkie likes giving out candy to all the little fillies and colts at a celebration in Equestria which may be just like spring. But I am not sure Fluttershy would approve of filling all the little ponies with sugar while the cute animals have their babies to tend to.

I just could not decide which pose to draw Pinkie in so I just had to draw one where she looks cute but also one where she is being a running Chicken since she does this so very often in the nightmare night episode. 

Both of these designs can use the same colour chart below: 

Colour	Used in these areas:	DMC Number	Anchor Number
Black	Eyes	310	403
White	Eyes, chicken suit main colour, teeth	5200	1
Blue	Iris	797	132
Grey	Chicken suit outline	414	235
Dark pink	Hair and skin outlines	956	28
Pink	Hair colour	899	52
Light pink	Skin main colour	963	23
Dark red	Comb and wattle outline	817	13
Red	Comb and wattle main colour (Tounge on standing pinkie)	900	333
Yellow	Chicken legs main colour	307	289
Dark yellow	Chicken legs outline and detail colour	3820	306

This design was drawn originally with Anchor colours in my program. Use anchor threads to get the closest match. I used a conversion chart to get the DMC numbers.

 This is a cross stitch design for the Lumpy Space Princess from Adventure Time.

I decided to draw a picture where she is holding her mobile phone because this is something she does quite a bit in the show. Plus don't you just love her disgruntled expression here?

Lumpy Space Princess doesn't appear to be a name rather than a title because she is the Princess of a region called Lumpy Space. In Lumpy space lumps are considered very attractive and Lumpy space Princess appears to be rather proud of hers. (except in the episode where she tries to make herself unlumpy and ends up round that is)
