pixel art (but not)

two pugs lying on a blue rug, the bigger/closer one with more white fur than the other

this week's main project: 

preparing to cross stitch a photo of our pugs, for a frame or a little stuffed pillow or some other keepsake.

after getting back into cross-stitch a little bit last year, I initially thought about using one of our wedding photos to make a big anniversary piece or something.

much more fun and less self-conscious creating sepia-toned art from a photo of pugs.

pixel-esque print-out of the same photo as a cross stitch pattern

I've trimmed my aida cloth, marked out a border, and acquired most of the floss that I need. it'll be exciting to start this. hopefully it doesn't take multiple years to finish the 9 x 6 piece.
