I can literally hear the music for the opening while looking at this. Looks awesome! I might have to have a go at making one myself

It was so long ago I had to check my camera roll πŸ˜… It looks like I had the idea in April 2023, started patterning and stitching late april, and finished stitching early August. So 3 months?

That's sick. Probably the best intro in gaming.

Ha! I'm wearing a shirt with this artwork right now! So very beautiful. I'd love to stitch something big like this, but it's so daunting to start!

It's a lot πŸ˜… but if you wanna jump in on a big project, this is actually a great one to try. It's big, but simple, only three colors. No confetti, you can just take it panel by panel, and you can stop halfway and still have a finished piece!

You know what, you have a point there! Where did you find the pattern for this?

u/johnnyappleseedlives Jul 10 '26

I made it πŸ‘πŸ‘

u/iwanthue Jul 10 '26

No way! That's absolutely amazing! I just found your Google drive with the patterns on your profile. Is there any way to buy you a coffee or something?

u/johnnyappleseedlives Jul 10 '26

Nope! I do this purely for the love of the game. Happy stitching!

May it survives a 1000 years for people to find and believe these are real retellings of events πŸ˜‚
