XRogue · 02-03-2006, 11:51 AM

Just uploading a pic of the sampler I'm working on, plus another of what (I hope)
it will look like when I'm done.

Nice

My Mom would always get my brother and I little cross stitching kits when we were at my Grandparents, kinda fun.

/me touches up his lipstick

Stang · 02-03-2006, 04:58 PM

That is nice. How much time have you put into it so far?

I still have one that I started in a drawer that she gave me that I need to work on.

XRogue · 02-03-2006, 06:54 PM

About 80 hours, I guess. Advanced ones are a pain.

Bright red lipstick, Gryph?

Raiyven · 02-03-2006, 07:47 PM

those are awesome! i look forward to seeing the finished product.
have you ever considered doing contract work? or is it a straight from the heart sort of art?

Ghryphen · 02-03-2006, 10:07 PM

more pink than red

Cerberus · 02-03-2006, 11:54 PM

crap i do not have the patience for that.

XRogue · 02-04-2006, 07:23 PM

Nope. Contract work of this sort doesn't pay terribly well. Designing patterns for other people to do is more profitable, and that I have considered.

Raiyven · 02-05-2006, 07:28 PM

the bookstore i work in carries no fewer than fifty-odd needlepoint/cross-stitch magazines and the like. You could probably sell patterns to them if you wanted

XRogue · 02-06-2006, 08:25 AM

Very true. It's not a bad living, once you get started. Of course, you end up giving a nice chunk to the publisher, but still.

XRogue · 02-24-2006, 06:18 PM

Another update. More later.

Stang · 02-27-2006, 04:13 PM

Wow you got alot done. Looking great!

XRogue · 03-01-2006, 01:49 PM

I've gotten a good bit more done since, too. Hang in there.

XRogue · 05-02-2006, 12:30 PM

New update below. Almost there!

Stang · 05-02-2006, 06:34 PM
