WIP Update: Avantasia Bookmark

I've been working on and off on that bookmark, sometimes going for a week or so without doing anything. Unfortunately, schoolwork is holding me down a bit more than I'd like. And on top of that, I must get to work on that Chinese stitch! But then there's another gift I'm planning for someone who's about to graduate, as well as another gift for someone far away, along with several other ideas bouncing around in my mind. So it's been pretty hectic, tying to keep up with everything all at once.

But on the upside (I think), I have only 43 more rows of white to go on the bookmark. I'll probably put it down for a while so I can get to work on those other projects which, quite frankly, are more important. This bookmark is basically a personal project, not a gift.

And then I have to try to finish it properly...
I don't know which project to tackle first, in terms of taking a break from this bookmark. Probably it'll end up being the most simple one, though. We'll see. (:

Pattern: A Cup of March

The third cup is a mug of beer, because why not? I made the mug from an actual image this time, instead of making pixel art from scratch, because it's late in the month and I'm lazy.

The border has adorable clovers, a classic March symbol. I was going to do kites, but decided against it.

The French and Italian/Spanish are a separate image this time. Sorry about that.


100x100 Grid.

Since Spanish and Italian had the same result.
