MadXStitcher

Ever wonder what might happen if you tried to re-chart an image for a different brand?  Well, wonder no more.  I took the same image, and imported it to PCStitch for a variety of popular floss brands.  Note that I did not include everything, since some of the brands in PCStitch's library have an extremely limited palette.  Also be aware that these colours are dependent on how PCStitch displays these colours, so it may not be 100% accurate.  But it can give you an idea of what you'll get.

The original painted image is on the left.  This only compares the original, intended colours to the floss.  It does not directly compare flosses.

The 2019 MadXStitchalong is scheduled to take two months this year.  Why?  Because it's a bit bigger than the ones in the past, for one, and a two-month schedule should hopefully make it easier for everyone to keep up.  It's also a drawn design this year, meaning that although the design is bigger, it's going to be much simpler to stitch and count, with a lower threshold for detail.

The 2019 SAL will run from September 1st through Halloween.  Also changing this year is the way you will be receiving your patterns.  Rather than having to remember to keep checking back at a certain page, there is a form below for you to sign up.  Every week, starting Sunday, September 1st, you will receive all your files over email.  The SAL will be structured at one page per week, except for the final week, which will be two pages. 

Like every year, the design is a mystery.  But you do get to know some specifics.

This week's workbook is the goat!  I got a lot of work done on him over the last month, so here's a little behind the scenes look at how that project has gone.

This it it.  My biggest and most ambitious project ever.  I've wanted to do this image for years, and couldn't figure out how to make it convert until I started playing with a new charting style.  And lo! It's perfect already.  25ct, 550x300 stitches.  I may die before I ever finish it, but let's see if I can beat this thing.

May's odds and ends.  Lots of little things that got worked on this month.  Things that aren't going to be around long enough to warrant their own monster video series, basically.

Kermit the Frog, here!  The last month's work on him has been rather slow, but I got a page finish out of it!  I'm loving these greens so much, and can't wait to get into some of the deeper colours on the next page.

Folks who have been here for a while have probably heard me talk about the Jingle Jam. For those who aren't familiar with it, it's a charity event hosted by the Yogscast every December, raising money for a huge variety of charities. Last year's featured charities included Call of Duty Endowment, Cancer Research UK, International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association, Mental Health Foundation, Save the Children, Special Effect, Wallace & Gromit's Grand Appeal, and Whale and Dolphin Conservation, with hundreds more donors could chose from if they wanted.
This year, we as a community can join this group effort by participating in a quilt project. Here's what you need to do to participate:Using 14ct fabric, create a square of any size, with dimensions in multiples of 10 (10x10, 20x20, etc) Send the square/s to the PO Box by November 1st 2019. The squares will be assembled into a quilt, and auctioned off. All proceeds from the quilt will go to …

Workbook entry for a commissioned patch.  For such a little thing, it sure did have a lot going on.  See more behind the scenes photos and details on Patreon.

Three pieces on this week's roster.  One which will probably be finished today, if all goes well.

Patch commission.  I need to fix the bird because I hate it, but there really isn't much left on this one.  I also need to work out some back stitching for the bird and maybe the orange bits.  But Mr Bird there definitely blends into the background in a way I really don't like.

Conbadge, example and guerrilla marketing.  After the Haida badge, I really fell in love with doing them this way.  This one is on dyed blue fabric, though I haven't been as quick on it as I'd have liked.  Paying commissions take priority, and other stuff around the house got in the way as well.  Ideally, I think I can still manage to clear this entire list by the end of the week.



Frostline

Conbadge, trade.  Another badge, because they're a quick way to get my work and examples out there.  I think I used the wrong brush while drawing the sprite, because some things see…

I take commissions for a variety of styles and options, through Commiss.io.  Commissions are either a set size and price, or incrementally increasing in size and price.  A variety of add-on options are also offered.


Originals can also be purchased through Commiss.io.  Pretty much everything that isn't a commission winds up available for sale.  Prices start at $5 for small patches, and go up from there.  Typically, originals are priced at 50% of what the commissioned price would be.
After some cross stitch patterns?  They are also on Commiss.io.  All patterns are $6, regardless of size.
