Theme-A-Licious March Madness (week 2)

The theme for this month is March Madness, "Work on something different every day... it's madness... of the funnest possible kind."  I used the Random Number Generator to pick a number from 1-96 for a WIP from my WIPocalypse list to stitch on each day.  I'll post an update every Saturday with the choices for the prior week.

March 8 - #12, I'll Get You My Pretty:  I stitched the moon, broom, and bat and it's finished!
I'll Get You My Pretty - FINISHED!

Crazy January start #11

Day #11 of the Ultimate Crazy January Challenge is Alice from Resident Evil, a free chart I found on My Photo Stitch.  I'm making this for my son, since I remembered he liked the actress, Milla Jovovich, and he loves video games.  This is just for fun.  It will make him smile or he'll say, "What were you thinking?"  I'm stitching on tan 18 ct Aida and it will be about 5" x 4".

It doesn't look like anything yet, but it's based on this photo:

Resident Evil is a video game, so what better WIP to pair it up with than another video game?  I pulled out Pac-Man, one of my Crazy January starts from 2012.  I stitched more yellow and blue backstitching.
Pac-Man update #2
This was my favorite game I played at the arcade, back in the old days when we used quarters!  Can you hear the chomp-chomp-chomp noise in your head now?

November 10-12, per Random Number Generator!

I hope to finish some more of my Ultimate Crazy January Challenge starts before the end of the year.  The Random Number Generator chose these designs.  It's still fun to see the winning number pop up!

November 10 - #21 Pac-Man.  The only video games I ever played at the arcade were Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man, very simple ones with only a joystick.  I couldn't handle anything more complicated than that!  Does anyone remember back in the day when you had to go somewhere and bring quarters to play pinball machines and video games?  This was hundreds of years ago before you could play video games in your own home!  I stitched more yellow and light blue outlining.  This is on 14 ct black Aida.  I'm making this one for me!
Pac-Man update #1
November 11 - #47 Leo.  This is a free chart from Stitch Alley.  I started this one in February and today I stitched more of the lion's head.  I'm making this one for my daughter, since her zodiac sign is Leo.  It is simple black on red 14 ct Aida.
Leo update #1
November 12 - #41 Noel.  I started this ornament in February but haven't touched it since.  Today I stitched the letters E and L.  I'm glad the Random Number Generator picked this one to stitch.  In fact, I'm happy whatever WIP is chosen!

Day #19 - Pac-Man

Day #19 of my Ultimate Crazy January Challenge is Pac-Man, an old chart from the 1980s by Millcraft.  I remember going to the video arcades when I was a kid and popping quarters in the Pac-Man game, but I liked Ms. Pac-Man better.  This will be a fun chart to stitch!
