Will anyone have a go at a Professor Layton one? Or a Streets of Rage one? Those would be cool. :beg:

Finished my second design - Journey on the PS3 (2012).

PC stitch didn't want to map my colors so if anyone stitches this be aware that there's a dark red on the streamer in the middle that's easy to overlook.
I realized I may not be able to participate in the stitching of this as next month looks busy but I look forward to seeing everyone's work.

I NEED to stitch that Journey band! I love how ornate you made it.

I'm glad you guys like it! It was a lot of fun to make. The first time I played Journey I was blown away. Getting to the end was just so... amazing. I think I sat there in stunned silence for a few minutes. I've been wanting to do something for this game for a long time now (same with SotC actually - Vagrant Story is last on my bucket list of games that need patterns).

I may make another Journey band with the white robe, which will require stitching on a dark background, or little white space... so it may not be ideal for this challenge but maybe some adventurous people will pick it up anyhow ;)
