>.< Hi everyone!
I do love to cross stitch.. I've been doing it for awhile, but just recently have started really getting into it. At the moment I'm working on a video game cross stitch.. and it'll be the biggest thing I've ever done. I'm worried I'll get discouraged :thinks: but I think I can do it. I've been gradually working up to this project and can't wait for it to be done so I can hang it up on my wall >.< :) I don't have any pictures of it at the moment and I don't have an example of what it will look like when it's done but I think it's going to be pretty awesome. :D I'll can post a picture of what I do have done later though.. >.<

Sorry for the late reply. The game is called Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
It's kinda known but I don't know many people who know about the game. I'll attach a pic below of what I have done. Oh and instead of Phoenix Wright yelling out "OBJECTION" like he normally does I found this altered one that turned his eyes to hearts and had him say "AFFECTION" instead... >.< I thought it was cute so I had to stitch it. I know not much is done but I literally JUST started this project.
So far I'm not feeling discouraged at all and am feeling pretty eager to work on it. :D

Here is a picture of what it's supposed to look like.. >.< I got the pattern from Sprite Stitch. :D

I messed up once and kicked myself for it when I realized how far back I messed up. I altered the pattern a little and I think I saved it. I think anyways... :l

The fabric I'm using is 14ct Aida and the tube says the color is cinnamon... :p

Lovely stitching. I've been on sprite stitch a few times and found some lovely patterns I'd like to work on soon. The Ace Attorney games are one of my favorite game franchises! It's great to see another geeky stitcher here. :)

Whew! Been working on that bad boy nonstop lately. Every second I get I'm stitching even if it's just a few here and there. I thought I was going to feel discouraged but actually I kind of feel challenged. :D I'll post a picture later of what I've got done. It feels good to have people to share my progress with :P Sprite Stitch does have lovely patterns.. I plan on working on another one from there after I'm done with this :D The Ace Attorney games have been my favorite for so long. I own all the games and the little spin offs they have. :)
