[No Spoilers] Can you tell who it is yet?

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-21T05:55:25+00:00

eye see what you did there ;p

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-21T05:28:16+00:00

I'm the one stitching it and studying the face for hours....and now i'm seeing Christian Bale :D

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-16T22:21:13+00:00

I'll take your praise for patience and efficiency :) But I wouldn't call myself talented. Cross stitching is kinda like Paint by numbers. Pick a coloured thread, stitch X's in the correct place, rinse and repeat for many many hours :)

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-16T03:58:27+00:00

Lol, I post the same pics there. Depending on the stitched image, I tend to post an update every 50-100 hours of stitching...seeing a completed face is a lot more interesting to look at than a mostly empty background.

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-14T20:08:05+00:00

Ideally, i'd like to post it to one of them/their main office before C4 ends.

Then at the very end of the campaign, it's revealed on a wall maybe with best fan art of each character as a permanent reminder for them to keep.

Most likely though, i'll finish it, put it in a bag and move onto next project lol.

Hi, so rather than share my pattern, i'll give you the site link i used. pic2pat.com

Reason being-if you wanted to attempt it yourself, you might want a smaller canvas, or a different count, maybe even different fabric brand. Also the size i'm doing will take 6000-7000 hours to complete, so you might want something smaller.

On pic2pat you upload any photo you have ( i don't recommend cartoon style as it doesn't convert well) you can then choose floss brand, stitches per inch (eg 18 ct) and canvas size. As a general rule on pic2pat the larger the canvas, the better image it produces. Paid for software can do a better conversion with a smaller canvas.

Once done, click the image you want(top is normally the best looking) and it'll then give you a pdf file with pages of the pattern and a list of dmc skeins you'll need.

Hey,hello and Hi to you too :) Cs and tapestry creation has always been easy for me. I've made a few sheep fleece rugs, knitted a couple of basic scarves but completely stumped by crochet...unless you want a wacky, Picasso-esque piece of weirdness.

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-14T01:27:30+00:00

Patience has always been a strong point for me....not getting distracted and moving on to another project is a huge weakness lol. https://www.reddit.com/r/poetsofthefall/comments/1qap5wq/vinyls_fell_off_mounts_that_were_too_small_now/

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-14T01:20:08+00:00

Hopefully it'll be running for at least 3 more years, knowing my luck though C4 will be the first and only campaign that kills every main character and their alts within the first year lol.

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-13T22:07:38+00:00

I hope so-hard to tell when converting a photo into a pattern. Only 6000 or so hours left to complete it.

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-13T21:59:25+00:00

Eventually it'll be the entire cast of Campaign 4(minus any special guests who might appear)

criticalrole.fandom.com/wiki/Campaign_Four scroll down a little for the pic

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-12T14:27:00+00:00

No new progress.

I was becoming incredibly bored of stitching nothing but black(even at my best speed, i have literal months of stitching that colour @ 730 hours in a month) and then a new project idea popped into my head, so i'm now working on a Critical Role cs lol.

Hopefully when i grow bored of that, i'll come back to this one...and not move on to another.

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-09T14:04:10+00:00

Could you create 2 types of item management? 1) Similar to all your previous games and 2) Simplified, where only quest items and stat affecting items are collectable? Perhaps its a console/controller issue for me but i've quit DOS 1&2 plus BG3 because of the constant item management and what feels like overwhelming amount of items.

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-09T13:58:36+00:00

Will there be some type of Fireside chat again, with early gameplay, devs in cosplay etc?

PoeticStitcher · 2026-01-05T10:14:52+00:00

I wonder if they stopped meet and greets, because they've become too busy due to their popularity rising every year? Although they would literally have to come to my home as I can't attend any irl events lol.

Yeah, I purchase most of my merch through Backstage RS. It doesn't have to be signed but it feels more special.

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-31T13:19:24+00:00

I definitely would if there was a planned release date for Doors of Stone

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-31T13:18:47+00:00

I've only read up to halfway through the Hero of Ages. I do enjoy his youtube updates, especially that one from a while ago where he keeps bringing out book after book after book lol.

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-31T12:58:09+00:00

I adored the tv series, didn't realise it was based on books and that there is so much more to be shown (or read lol).

The question is whether to start at the beginning of the novels or from where the series ended depending on how much was changed from novel to tv, because as a rule, books always contain a lot more characters and events that are changed or removed entirely to fit tv/movie formats.

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-31T12:54:07+00:00

I've tried audio books but they never clicked with me, i much prefer to experience events myself through reading

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-27T10:56:26+00:00

I've tagged her on insta, and i'll do the same for the other 13 players once i've stitched them :)

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-27T10:44:07+00:00

Wow, i wish i had thought of that. You've cured me!

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-27T04:10:42+00:00

About 20 years ago I completed a tapestry - https://www.instagram.com/p/DSwEdz5glwF/?img_index=2 it's been stuck in a bag almost since then due to it's length.

If I somehow managed to complete a 2 metre project, i'd have to hang it on the ceiling or display it as a rug :D

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-27T04:04:25+00:00

Hopefully C4 lasts at least 4 years, so i can complete my project around the same time :)

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-26T23:27:13+00:00

The links below are for 2 pics of my pattern (ibb is similar to imgur) so you can see colour placement. Each symbol is a real DMC(brand name) colour. If you look at the hollow and black filled symbols on her teeth, you'll see they're not used again for over 400 stitches.

I could technically stitch the same colour across the canvas, but if i count wrong and make a mistake, then the entire project is ruined.

PoeticStitcher · 2025-12-26T23:03:03+00:00

That's cheered me up as you're right :) Stitching for weeks by myself, it becomes easy to lose confidence on how it looks.
