Cross stitch gets some ink in Nintendo Power

In the latest issue of Nintendo Power magazine (April 2008), the letters section includes a submission from a fan of cross stitch. On page 9 you’ll find the following letter (full text follows in case you cannot read it all):

ALL STITCHED UP
One of my first issues of Nintendo Power featured an artist who cross-stitched videogame characters, and now I’ve done my own: a red-and-orange Mega Man for my Fire Man obsessed sister, and five Pokemon – Togekiss, Eevee, Butterfree, and two Pikachu.

Those look pixel-perfect, Sara! How about stitching up a giant tapestry of Nintendo characters for the new NP office? C’mon, what’s a couple hundred hours of work between friends?

As Gamertell’s own Jenni Lada can attest, videogame related cross stitch is gaining in popularity. Heck, I’m even thinking of picking up the needle again to lay down some funky game stitches.

Jenni’s produced a few gems of her own and posted them on the site. Here’s a link list in case you missed them:

Here’s a list of her well-crafted masterpieces so far:

• Blue Prinny (Disgaea PS2 game)
• Burger Time
• Link
• Two characters from Little Nemo: The Dream Master
• Angel Kirby

If you do your own game-related cross stitch, let us know and we might even post it on the site.
