Be My Jill and Vincent Valentine

This is my entry for the Sprite Stitch February Challenge: Unlikely Partnerships. These two came to my mind first for the exact reason that their last names are both...Valentine. Yeah, it's a little lame but I wanted to be far removed from the inevitable Mario/Zelda pairings. Plus, Jill would massacre Vincent if he appeared before her in one of his other forms, though he looks pretty creepy here. =] They make a very unlikely couple and I am pretty satisfied with my entry. Jill Valentine is from the Resident Evil series and Vincent Valentine is from Final Fantasy VII for those not in the know. Go play those games now. ♥

The sprites are from the Card Gallery; mad props to those wonderful artists. I haven't stitched a Card Gallery sprite since last summer so it was fun to revisit them. The letters are charted based on Redensek, my all time favourite font.

Robo + Atropos Valentine

I've been wanting to stitch this sprite for a long time and this Hallmark holiday was an ideal opportunity. Robo and Atropos from Chrono Trigger are two robots in love. How romantical. ♥ I stitched them on baby pink DMC aida. I made the stitching into a simple card for V-Day. I hope to keep up the tradition of making one per year.

2/19/2011: I edited this post to upload a better photo. This photo captures the subtlety of the pink fabric much better and the colours look more true. 

Jill Valentine

Since this stitch is taking me forever and it really should be done by now, I thought I would post an update. Here is Jill Valentine from the Resident Evil series. I started it on Super Bowl Sunday and finished only her boots. Yesterday I finished the rest. Seeing as the theme for this challenge is "An Unlikely Partnership", anyone care to hazard a guess as to who her partner is?

All the Small Things...

This was my second VG project ever, a bookmark featuring Zelos from Tales of Symphonia. I don't know who made this sprite to give them credit. =[
