Simon Belmont needlepoint

Post by benjibot »

I just got this one framed this afternoon. This is Simon from Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest. If you look closely you'll see I've added a cross motif to the background. I thought it fitting for a vampire hunter. Using different diagonal stitching gives it a nice contrast as you look from different angles.

I had never thought of stitching on plastic canvas and doing backgrounds like that before! After I finish my Christmas work of art I am definitely going to make some of these.

OneChordWonder deserves all the credit for these. I hadn't seen anyone do this before she started posting them. I'm following her tutorial.

I didn't read that tutorial before but I LOVE it! I am definitely going to make some of these after my Christmas project is done.
