Craftster member Cross Stitch Ninja has already created a Mario Bros 3 and Zelda map, but she really outdone herself with this piece! The work is 59 by 18 centimeters and it took her about 9 months to complete.

Crafting and 8-bit video games are a perfect combination. You can use beading, quilting, and of course, cross stitching to spark a bit of life in your favorite characters.

Badass Stegosaurus Cross Stitch
