9 Examples of Geeky Cross Stitch

Stitch by stitch and pixel by pixel, cross stitch is a great medium for geek crafts! Get out some graph paper and markers and see what kind of designs you can come up with.


The IT Crowd Cross Stitch

The IT Crowd Cross Stitch

Flickr user a440 is a lucky guy. His wife cross stitched this based on a photo of the introduction to the UK sitcom The IT Crowd. The guy on the left is even wearing a Space Invaders t-shirt!


Space Invaders

Flickr user Cross-stitch ninja made this complete Space Invaders screen as a gift a few years back. It’s awesome with high scores and everything.

Pirate vs. Ninja Towels

Pirate vs. Ninja Towels (Cross Stitch)

Ahh, the age old battle: pirates vs. ninjas. Etsy seller momerath offers these fingertip towels for any decor. “Now you’ll know for sure which group has better hand-washing techniques. I’m betting it’s the ninjas,” she says.


Commodore 64

Craftster user Maltiriel stitched the Commodore 64 logo for her dad as a birthday present. She says, “My dad’s a geek, but then so am I so I guess it works out well. Wink


Punch Out

Nintendo Punch Out (Cross Stitch)

This homage to Punch Out was Craftster user obesolete’s first cross stitch project that she completed. “I thought my fingers were going to fall off.” Can’t blame her, cross stitching can be very tedious.


Futurama

Craftster user jessii stitched up some of the gang from Futurama. She also likes to stitch Nintendo-related items and pictures of her favorite bands.


Binary Code

Craftster user carolynbb jumped right into cross stitching with approximately 7,000 stitches of ASCII binary code that spells her last name! Geeky *and* funny.
