It is getting better: reduced stitches-per-second, topping, stabilizer with improved technique, right colors for black t-shirt, bigger pixels, getting better at hooping.

Trivia: For which home computer or console was this game originally developed for ?

My eldest son loves to kill me, instead of killing the enemies, in this great video game.
Unfortunately the yellow color doesn't contrast with white.
I should try with a more vibrant yellow, or with a light-gray or black t-shirt, or don't use yellow.

From a few weeks ago, while I was testing embroidering in different fabrics.
I like the design / colors, but too much pucker.
Not good enough for a t-shirt, but good enough to frame it, and place it in my workbench.

I really like how the gradients look on this one.
The white T-shirt was the right choice, even though #lemmings has a black background.
I'll keep testing different t-shirt+thread colors.

My kid:
-"Dad, I want a Lemmings t-shirt".
-"Great choice son!"

guess the video game.

machine embroidered with 15 colors.
I liked the end result.
A few things to improve:
- some "pixels" are missing. Probably to density, and too many jump-stitches
- don't use colors that are too similar
- offset
