2026 Year of 100 Starts: Start #57 - Sonic the Hedgehog by Makibird

If you weren't familiar with yesterday's video game sprite, then maybe today you'll know this one? It's a more common character and tends to show up in lots of places, movies, TV shows and Nintendo video games, despite this being a Sega character originally. 

Without further ado, this is Sonic:

stitched 2 over 1 on 14ct silver perforated paper

with DMC as charted

I mixed up one of the blue colours in this one, but I don't think it mattered, so I didn't change it out. The two colours were very similar shades. Again, no need for backstitch with the colour changes, so it turned out pretty well I think, despite my error in the colours. The shoes in particular I like since you can kind of see how the back leg is lifted and the front leg is planted for him to go run or roll off at high speeds. 

Hope you've all had good stitching days, and see you next time for one more sprite!

Happy Stitching,
