So I have been working on my little Adventure Time cross stitch for the past couple days. I finished all of Finn the Human, including the whites. I also finished the black outline for Jake, and then I started to fill him in, but I did not like the color I had chosen for him. So I undid it, and found another color which looks great, but I don't have a lot of it, and I'm nervous that it won't be enough... Here it is:
Finn is supposed to have missing teeth, since he gnaws things and fights monsters all the time, but I really didn't like how unclear he looked, so I decided to add some back-stitching to his mouth and teeth to make it look clearer:
I think it looks much better with the back-stitching! Now I need to finish filling out Jake and then write "MATHEMATICAL!" above. Here are some close-up details of before and after the back-stitching:

Adventure Time_Finn & Jake
Here is an Adorable cross stitch I started. It's Finn & Jake from Adventure Time!!! I just LOVE that cartoon! so when I saw the cross stitch pattern, I just had to have it! I bought it from a shop called Stitchpal on Etsy. Here is the link to the shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Stitchpal?ref=pr_shop_more
I am stitching it on 18 count white aida using 2 strands. They had suggested the DMC colors, but I didn't have some of them, and I decided to change a couple of them, too. I started it on Monday March 5th. So far, it's coming out so cute!
This is as of Tuesday March 6th. I did some of the black outline on Finn to start, and then started to fill out the colors of his backpack and his t-shirt.
This is as of yesterday, Wednesday March 7th. As you can see, I have done most of Finn, except the teeth and the hat (white). He is looking so cute! Next I will continue the black outline for Jake the dog and then fill him in! It is going to look ALGEBRAIC!!!
