This is what happened when I decided to take up cross-stitch (I was looking for a medium that was cheap and easily portable). Rather than follow a published pattern or something, I came up with this. After all, the stitches of cross-stitch are essentially pixels, so a computer graphic (in this case, a video game sprite) is the perfect thing to reproduce. It also feeds into my penchant for combining contrasting elements in my work.
The featured character is Edgar from Final Fantasy VI. He’s a good fit for the “What Would ____ Do?” phrase, since in the game’s story he’s constantly scheming.
