This one is the cover of the “Handbook for the Recently Deceased” from Beetlejuice! I missed a row and had to frog a bunch of the blue and redo it, but now that I’ve got everything lined up again I hope to finish this one by next week!

    Woo looks good! You’re doing work over there.

    I started a couple of full coverage pieces. Sadly I’m only about 20 stitches in with the main one and I don’t have anything to show yet. Maybe next week!

      Thanks! I know the feeling! I had to step away from that Dracula’s Castle pattern for a bit because I was getting too frustrated with it… That one may have been a little more advanced than I was ready for lol

    Totoro is complete. On to the next bit. Probably the foliage on the right side. Maybe the umbrella.

      He looks awesome! The rest of that pattern looks like it will be really fun too (except maybe for the street sign lol)

        Thanks. Yeah I’m gonna have to figure a couple things out. I had to do his mouth in white because the black (shockingly) doesn’t show against the black cloth. So I may end up backstitching the sign in white or something also. Trying to decide what to do about the umbrella handle as well. My plan is to do as little black stitching as I can get away with. So I may just pick a real dark color for the handle. We’ll see.

          You are clearly more patient than I am! If I was doing this one I just wouldn’t stitch the handle at all and let the black cloth show through there lol

            That works against Totoro (and I like it), but I’m not convinced I can just have blank black leading up to the umbrella. Gonna have to think about it. Will know more once more is there.

              I looked at the pattern again and I see what you mean, that does look kind of weird left blank
