I wanted to make a 'home is where the controller is' cross stitch as a birthday present. The guy it's for loves playstation, but I couldn't find a pattern for a controller that I liked. So I made one myself :grin:

I'm really happy with how it turned out, I think the playstation font looks really nice. The pattern was a bit bigger than I expected, so it's a bit late for his birthday, but I think he'll still like it. I hope I'll have time to frame it today, it's still drying now, because I washed it last night.

Let me know if you want the pattern.

Wow. Very impressed with the whole thing, especially the controller. You designed that yourself? Very good work.

I didn't use the colors that are in the pattern, since I have a big bag of leftovers. I just pick something I think will look nice. I used DMC 645 as the main color, don't know about the rest, since the numbers where gone.

I got the font from this website:

Btw, it turns out my boyfriend framed it when I was gone and gave it to our friend, so I don't have a picture of it in a frame :( Boy am I happy I made a picture of it before I left :hmm:

Thank you for this great pattern, Ellentje! I made a few tiny changes and used different shades of gray. I stitched this for my son's girlfriend.
