HoshiChiri Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Since I see no reason not to keep the Secret Santa thread going well into Spring- I started on the kitty needlepoint my Santa gave me & thought I'd share progress! What I've learned: This kit is in half cross instead of tent stitch- which is good! I've never done tent stitch, but I do half cross all the time! The print has no distinction for where the actual stitches will land 😅 so I'm kinda winging it for what goes where. ohmygodthisNEEDLE! I added a picture of the smallest & largest needles I normally use, next to the one for this kit. It is HUGE. The biggest needle I've ever had. It kinda hurts my fingers because I'm not used to it! I've got my fingers crossed it'll turn out in the end- I'm worried about the detail around the eyes. I might backstitch there- we'll see! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Last night I dreamed that I received a big box from my AtariAge Secret Santa as a bonus gift for the spring. Inside it there were loads of gaming systems, neatly packaged with matching games of which many seemed to be the same game, only adapted for each console. I had a hard time getting back to class or work, going through all those systems, ranging from handhelds to ColecoVision copies, PC Engine and newer stuff. It was an amazing gift and probably worth several hundred dollars if not more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I don't dream up a new console in the next week you're in Dream-Trouble! 🤣 New update photo- I bit the bullet & did the eyes. I was terrified it'd all go wrong at the eyes, but it came out ok. He looks a lil' sad at getting pixelated, but that's it! I have also begun to adjust to the big needle, now switching back to my regular stitching feels overly delicate 😆 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoshiChiri Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 The cat is complete! Thoughts on needlepoint- that giant needle hurts my hands 😆 I'm sure with more practice it'd be fine, but good needlepoint is hard to come by in America- so I think I'll just mark this as a fun experiment! (Although, if I do find a good kit... 😉) 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today I finally had some free time to install Custom Firmware 1.30c and add stuff to the system. Oh I really like this! Next step is to check and see what alternate controller can be used. Still enjoying Christmas!! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I haven't opened either of mine yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
