Nice job Flo..

I'm glad someone took the time to try this out. I know it's a lot of steps, but I think the results are worth it.. =D> =D> =D>

I'm still waiting to see someone tackle a multi colored version. :cheesy:

Right , when you say " tackle " , I understand why now .... :mrgreen:

Well , in fact , that was much more work than I first imagined , especially to get a pleasing result for the eyes .

Anyway , here is what I got :
( " flat textures " , not crumpled , light and deep colours versions .
1200 * 1200 pixels )

Nice job..

If was easy then anybody could do it. :cheesy:
Being willing to go the extra mile is what will separate you from the pack..

Hope the idioms translate ok for you. :cheesy:

My new try now , is just “ one little foot forward “ …. :mrgreen:

So , I tried to add some new variations ;
little patterns ( dots ) , not " even " , weathered , and shaded .

Original file is 6.44 Mb - Inno file must be less than 200 K .
( some definition and details have been lost on the way … ! )

Thanks for looking ,

cheers ,
flo.

Nice plaid look, Flo! I wonder what would happen if you alternated vertical stripes and horizontal stripes to make a colorful plaid...

Zig/Zag stitching.

Used Neon Edge detect and AAA's Good Vibrations filter to create this one (some other things too of course). :)

Haven't stitched anything in a little while, so I played with a few various programs including Mathmatica (for the base pattern which I made seamless in GIMP) to create this colorful lace. The graphic show doesn't really do the result justice, so I'm including this link (2.88MByte) hosted my MediaFire. :)

Went ahead and created another version for Phyllis (embedded here; slightly smaller). Added the stained wood backdrop since jpegs don't support transparencies. This one is very highly compressed, but still doesn't look that bad. It's still seamless. :)
