[cross-stitch project] Mario across the NES Ages

IT IS DONE.

Hours to complete: Uh, 15? 20? Probably much more than that since I'm a bad judge of time. I started around the 27th of January and worked on it off and on until the 11th of this month.
Trips to Hobby Lobby: Too many. I kept on oh so conveniently buying every thread color but the ones I needed. MY OBSESSIVE LIST MAKING SERVED NO PURPOSE.
Happiness level over project: EXTREME. I've only recently started cross-stitching and this is my first sorta big project.
Next up: Had I made this post sooner in the week I would have offered Legend of Zelda Valentines. Other than that, I have no idea. [looks around secretly and motions you all forward] Actually, I have an Okami pattern all set out, but I need to get myself really motivated since it is kind of an insane project. So many stitches to do~
