Sprite Stitch Board!

I found this Banksy [graffiti artist in the UK] quote that I really liked, so I designed a pattern for it. This is how it turned out Let me know what you think!

Sorry for the strange picture angle... all I have is my camera on my phone.

Very cool!!!

I never really thought of advertising that way... nice quote, and great job! I really like the top/bottom swirls.

Thank you both!

Wow, never heard this quote before but I completely agree with it. Non-Construct Abstract art makes my eyes hurt and a small art of me die inside to see it continue. >.< Anyway, Love the piece, nice back stitch work and the swirl pattern is lovely. Did you make it up on your own or base it off an existing pattern?

I found the swirl as a computer graphic off of Google and then ran it through KG Chart. Picked the alphabet out of a design book, and then hand-drew the pattern onto some graph paper to make it all fit together! Quite a bit of planning, but I like the way it turned out.

I really appreciate this. Good job.

Oh wow,my brother would LOVE this! He's studying art at uni, i think i may have to steal this design and stitch it for him if thats ok?
