this here is a cross stitch rendering in embroidery sampler style of the Aperture Science Weighted Companion Cube on 28-count Evenweave. what possessed me? I don't know. I guess I just wanted to remind Dan what a geek I am in celebration of our anniversary.
he laughed a lot, though, so I win. I adapted a pattern from this lovely wallpaper: [link] (which is currently gracing both my desktop and my phone) and rendered the companion cube in 10 colors of embroidery floss. this is fan art for Valve's Portal but the "fan art" category doesn't have any textile options :'( cross stitch isn't complex, but boy does it take a long time. 5"x7" |

It's almost enough to cause me to take up cross stitch again... almost.
The adaptation of the Dickinson poem is quite clever as well.

Who saw what and why and where

Let one speak who saw it all
[link] <- you can kind of make it out in this screen capture, toward the middle-right of the screen.
when it comes to samplers, they always seem to have pithy verses, and of all of the lore in the game, nothing seemed more appropriate for the task than this.

I watch a lot of TV. I drink a lot of coffee, too. But you know what's really addictive? Heroin.

I haven't even played the game, I've heard about it, and I've been told the general gist of the wieghted companion cube thing, but I still think this is awesome. It's CROSS STITCH xD!

It's a fine line between denial and faith. It's much better on my side...
