I'm about 1/3 of the way done after over a year of breaks and other projects. If looking closely you can see my skill progression.

Thanks I had to dye the fabric myself. I once used onion peeled and avocado shells as dye too.

Oh my gosh that is SO COOL!!! It looks just like the game too lol! This makes me want to do one for Super Mario World now, but I don't think I'm quite at that skill level yet lol

The thing about cross stitch is: it's only one stitch at a time. If you can do a little pattern you can definitely do a big one!

Couldn't agree more, the only real difficulty here is making sure you don't lose count.
