Peter Petrelli: Pressed, Photographed and Posted

Jan 24, 2009 18:58

Six months ago I, in a fit of madness, decided to turn Tim Sale's painting of Peter Petreli from Heroes into a cross stitched piece. To make the nearly 30cm by 30cm piece I used over 118 metres of thread in 29 different colours, and stitched 29,925 stitches. It probably took somewhere in the region of 300 hours to finish.

It seems somewhat anticlimactic posting this now that a whole month has passed since it was completed. But post I shall. The delay is due to me wanting better pictures of the completed project, but this will have to do for now and I shall edit to add other photos as and when they appear.

And so, without further ado...

From this..



...to this...
