Good evening Peeps!
I'm sorry to be spamming you twice in one day, but I've just added some new patterns to my website and I couldn't wait till tomorrow to post this!!!
Pokemon Gym Badges are a popular theme and I've seen lots of them done in cross-stitch and perler beads, but patterns for them are few and far between -- I think I've only ever seen patterns for the Kanto Region Gyms.
The gym badges are pretty cool, so I decided that hard-core crafty Pokemon fans really need to have patterns for all the gym badges -- that's a wopping 40 badges spread across 5 games/regions!!!
And here they are:
 |
| Kanto Region |
 |
| Johto Region |
 |
| Hoenn Region |
 |
| Sinnoh Region |
 |
| Unova Region |
This project has taken me several weeks to complete and finding reference sources for the Unova badges took some doing! As much as I'm enjoying playing White at the moment, I have to confess that I don't actually think the Unova badges are as funky as some of the earlier badges, so I added a bit of metallic sparkle to them to jazz them up!!!
My personal favourites, for reasons which escape me, are the Sinnoh Gym Badges -- I never completed Diamond (I got bored with it @____@), but the badges are pretty cool.
Whatever, you're favourite badges, I hope you'll have a go! You can download the patterns directly from here: http://gatchastitch.110mb.com/Pokemon.html
Well that's all for today, it's getting quite late now and I really should go to bed and catch up with my sleep.
Till next time ... Keep Kalm and Cross-stitch! xx
PS: My threads came this morning so I will be able to crack on with my Unown Sampler!!!! ^_____^
These are really fantastic! I'm currently in charge of the local Pokemon TCG League, so I'm considering needlepointing a huge stack of these and giving them to players. ^^ Thanks so much for posting these charts!
ReplyDeleteWow you have been busy!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your finished project!! :)
Yeah, and here's me saying I wasn't gonna do anymore patterns for a while!!!
ReplyDelete@Missy - I'm glad you like the Pokemon Gym Badges!!! I hope you'll post some of them once their stitched so that I can see how they turn out! xx
I think these are amazing, I am going to do a sampler of all 5 regions badges (6 if I can find a pattern for gen 6's badges), and I am starting on gen 1 but have a query re the rainbow badge. For the 4 dots symbol (on the rainbow badge) you say to use dmc 587. I can’t find this thread anywhere. Is it possibly a typo on the pdf or possible discontinued, if so what should it be?
