Okay, hi guys~
Taking a quick break from scrubbing absolutely EVERYTHING in my room (roommate found mold eek ) to post something I've been thinking about for a while!
What I'm making:
A cross stitch!
If you don't know what I'm talking about, that's this, basically, but it'll be more then just flowers, ha!
So if you have a piece of artwork or even just an avi that you like, I will consider making one for you c:
The ideal person to make this for would be:
PATIENT. That's the main thing. These kinda take forever, so like, it might literally be a few months until it's finished, depending on how big it is.
Also, willing to bug me. Like, shoot me a PM every week or two to see how it's coming. Otherwise I might forget and never finish and that would be tragic. I can send you in progress pictures, but since I usually do one colour at a time, it'll probably look like a mess for a while, ha.
Do I need to give you my address?
Nope, you don't! I would like to mail it to you, yes, depending on where you live. I live in Canada, so anywhere in Canada (ideal) or the States shouldn't be too bad, but unless you are willing to send me money by paypal, I'm probably not mailing it to Europe, Australia, etc. However, I can take a picture and just give that to you. I can make the picture look pretty nice, too, if you want me too c: I've got flowers, a doll, and such that I can put around it to make it look pretty.
Even if it does turn out terrible, hey, it's free for you, right?
I've checked Gaia rules, and as long as you can provide a good digital copy of the art, it's allowed. Plus it's free, so. . . ha. It's not like you are really losing anything even if I try to send it and it gets lost. If we discuss you paying for it to be mailed, we will need to switch to email or something to discuss it, because I'm pretty sure that's not allowed on Gaia? I dunno, but I'm sure we can make it work.
What do you need to make this? A pattern?
Nope, I can very easily make one myself from a picture. All I need is a picture and permission from the artist to use it. Gaia avis are fine, we have permission from the admins to use them. Other art. . . we will need to contact the artist. I can reverse look-up the picture to try and find the artist for you, or if they are a Gaia artist, you can PM them and get them to PM me. If it's your own art, superb, no problem c:
The smaller it is, the better it will translate to cross stitch, btw. Some things just. . . won't work properly. Even if it's something huge, I'm willing to try and make a pattern from it and see how it goes! I'll test it before I agree to do it for you :3
Real pictures are iffy--I might be able to make them work. I can try, but no guarantees.
Alternatively, if you have something specific you are looking for and want to find me the pattern online, I can make the art from the pattern! There are lots of free pattern sites :3
Other info!
I'm going to leave this open for two weeks, I think--so until Sept 4. That will give people plenty of time to find the artists and get permission. I will then close it and pick someone to do. If I find something that I really want to do before that point, I might close early, I'm not sure, ha. We'll see c: Get your request in as soon as you can, or at least let me know you are interested. I really want to know if anyone is interested, or if this is completely useless.

Fill this out to leave a request, please c:
Super simple, but I couldn't be bothered to make something complicated.
