The Ogre Eagle is complete! My goodness, that took way longer than expected but at least it’s finished before Octopath 0 releases!
2/35 Octopath 1 bosses stitched, 10/35 charted…

My costume this year was definitely, 100% not inspired by zero escape. Nope.

It took me 30 minutes to find those damn green pigeon!!! I was going around and around in circles, certain it was on a roof. Honestly, the fact that it turned to night during my search is probably the only reason I noticed the lamppost in the first place!

The frantic movements of someone who heard the shiny twinkle 3 hours into the game, barely knows the controls and is desperately trying to both find the damn thing and not scare it off…

Legends ZA is immediately overwhelming and I’m terrible at the combat, but it’s okay, because she’s back!!!

Some stitching updates for the month! As I shared in a probably overly wordy post on tumblr, 60 hours a week between work and uni is exhausting and progress is just nonexistent while I’m adjusting. I’ll still be chipping away, but I will also be sleeping.

Spare money from the first payslip of a new job always has to go to something deeply stupid…

Not sure about this bright green for the river, but I’ll trust the process!

It’s tiny Takumi Sumino!!
My first time making my own Octopath style sprite, but I think it’s pretty good try. Plus, now I have a pocket Takumi!

I’m starting to have doubts about my new job, cold feet, just general anxiety compounded by like, everything, so I’ve been gripping really, really tight to the one game that’s kept me nice and occupied during all this: the Hundred Line. Which is why this chart now exists…

I miss the brainlessness of stitching the same colour for hundreds of stitches, so it’s time to start the LttP dark world map alongside the Ogre Eagle! I’m starting from the bottom right corner, so I stitch exactly backwards from how I stitched the light world map, I thought it might be cool.

Chart update time! The Venomtooth tiger is complete and an absolute nightmare because of DMC's restrictive pale grey and purples palette, but I'm happy with the result. Galdera, on the other hand, looks amazing but is causing headaches with how much I squint at him. Still, slow progress is progress!

One day of progress, I’d say finishing in six weeks is fully possible!
