Sailor Jupiter Pillow

I saw this [link] and decided to make a similar one for my best friend for Christmas. Mine ended up quite a bit larger though.

Chella is a huge fan of Sailor Jupiter from Sailor Moon so I found the only existing Sailor Jupiter cross stitch pattern out there and got to work. It measured 200 x 300 stitches and 18 x 24 inches at that point. I worked my fingers to blisters trying to get it done in time but once I went to construct the actual pillow I hit a snag, no pun intended.

I was 90% done and ran out of trim because I has measured wrong! Hobby Lobby didn't get more in until a few days ago. Grr...!!! So yeah... she'll be getting her Christmas present at the beginning of March, lol. Whatever works I suppose.

Pictures just don't do it justice as it turned out really nifty! Now it is done and I am happy! It now measures 25 x 32 inches! I really hope she loves it. ^_^
