Bag with all my favourite video games

Post by Sheetaaa »

Yeah, I still don't have received the bag, but...

I'm going to stitch a little thing for every video game I've loved in my life! That includes for example::

Silent Hill
Skyrim
Mario
Yoshi's Island
Pokemon
Dinosaur
Ace Attorney
999
Zero Escape
etc.

Lots of different games. I'm planning to wait for the bag to be able to count the number of crosses I can stitch... and then, I'll make the pattern with KG Chart. I'll make a background inspired by Yoshi's Island's levels because I love them, and put the sprites of the other games all over the place ! I'll show you the pattern as soon as I'll have made it... Brrr, big project !

Sounds like a good project. I have always wanted to make something that had a thing from all my special games, just no idea what!

Looking forward to seeing you start this project!

Maybe we'll have some games in common and you'll be able to use the sprites ! :D

I will have to create sprites for some games because some characters are waaay too big to be stitched on a bag. For example, Phoenix Wright or characters from other visual novels.

blackberrybear made a bag like this for me in the Big Swap last year:

I use it almost every day; it's my stitching bag, and it gets positive reviews. I highly recommend making one!

I loooove it, Doctor Whoooo :clapping:

I spent nearly three years to find a good handbag on the internet, so now I can't even find it again to show you which one it is... Well, I'll take a picture !

After the obvious fact that there is waaay too much place on this bag to stitch only video games, I have decided to put TV shows on it too! Basically a fandom bag...

BUT.

I'm using bought patterns because they were really cool, so I believe I won't have the right to provide the pattern. I will take pictures of the bag and provide patterns of the elements I created myself!

I made :

- The Machinarium robot
- A 999 watch
- The cat from Ghost Trick
- The Sims logo

I had that idea once too. When I finalised the list it was 30 games long :P
Good luck though, I've always wondered how to put something like this together with different size sprites and stuff...

I'm currently creating the 100% Muse part, and I'll be able to give the pattern since it's really mine, mine and mine!

The whole thing is messy, but I like messy stuff so...

First glimpse! It's very slow to sew inside a bag...
