As in, actual "needle-pulling-thread" cross-stitching:
Super Mario Bros. 3 - World 1 map
The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past - Light World map
The Legend Of Zelda: Link's Awakening (DX?) - Koholint map
The Legend Of Zelda: Oracle Of Ages - Labrynna (Present) map
Of course, The Legend Of Zelda's title screen looks pretty good too.
The awesome thing about pixel art is that it can be applied to cross-stitching, quiltwork, those beady things, LEGO and PixelBlocks so easily.

Pretty nifty. Seems like it would take a long, long time.

Seems that site has a lot of stuff, not just stitching. Here's a Metroid quilt.
EDIT: Hey, they're for sale. Sweet.
EDIT: Aw, it's no longer on sale. Never mind. But it looks like some Perler bead creations are available...

I did the cafe scene from River City Random. It took a while and it was only a 62x62 design.

Sweet! You've got the talents for cloth crafting as well as map crafting. Such souvenirs would be very popular for collectors.
All I did in sewing was some pin cushions, a couple of pouches and three cushions, using cloth material readily provided and assembling it together with tiny accurate stitches.

Cross-stitching is the easiest thing in the world. It's just time consuming. As for other stuff, I don't even know how to sew a button back on my pants!

So now we've proved that everyone on the internet is a guy, now we're proving they all do needlework?

After you are done looking at the cross stitch work, check out the shirt. It has to be the most hilarious thing I have seen in a while. Pure awesome.
The entire site is neat though. It's nice to see video game sprites getting a little recognition. (Even if they are homemade goods.)

That last move on the shirt looks difficult to pull out though :)

Are you kidding? I can do the last one without breaking a sweat. It's the first three that give me problems. :P

Those are awesome. They almost look treasure map like.

Must be a pain to move that thing without it breaking.
