Mavin the Martian, December of 2024

A Christmas Gift, Per my Father’s Request!

He wanted something Marvin the Martian and he got it.

The pattern is on Etsy from StarShopPatterns. It also had several other Looney Tunes Characters available to make as well.

The original pattern had you use the same colors on each and every side the same way so while I used the same colors, I switched them up to add some variation to the box when viewed in the round.

I really think it helped with the visual interest of the object.

This Pattern was a little difficult to complete. One reason was I have never really done an uneven edge on a Bargello project before, so that was a learning curve. I also haven’t layered pieces to create depth either which I did with the front of his helmet, that was a whole separate piece that was stitched.

I’ve also done a digital piece of Marvin for my Dad too. He likes what he likes!
