I kinda got side tracked by video games and whatnot but I finally finished my Castlevania project. I'm happy with the way it turned out.   |

Thanks everyone! The Castlevania square is 6in by 6in. I actually have six, six by six inch squares completed...I was obviously inspired by the charity quilts made every year by Toni and hope to have enough for a personal video game quilt of my own. Each game is basically a favorite of mine from when I was younger. Ive got a pattern made up for Oregon Trail which I think I'm going to start next. I have a Street Fighter square started but it has so many colors and skipping about that I dont know when I'll get back to it...  |

I hope your Oregon Trail square include "you have died of dysentery." Its probably what I remember most about that game lol.
But I love it so far. All the colours really match well. I look forward to seeing everything you put in it.

i wanted to do something with text like the suggestions above but I couldnt find a good picture that would fit the 96 by 96 stitches  . I also would’ve preferred a screenshot of the game from the Apple IIe version as its probably the first computer/video game I’ve ever played. I eventually found an Image I thought was ok from an early Dos windows version of the game. Its from one of the little screenshots you get for coming upon important Oregon Trail milestones. This ones from the Big Blue Crossing. before I start this I may do one more image search  |
