Embroidered Text


I wrote the story of Ritual of the Moon in the first half of 2015. A few months later I hand embroidered all the witch's inner dialogue. It took about 5 of those embroidery hoops. Multiple people have told me I could have made a font set -  I know I could have! But I didn't want to make a font set because I didn't want all the Es to look the same or the "the"s to look identical. I'm asking the player to play for 28 days, so what is 2 months of doing embroidery in my spare time? 

It was a great editing process. I had to be very thoughtful with the words I used and the space it took up, making it short and bittersweet as possible. Of all the parts of working on Ritual of the Moon, this was probably my favourite. I love writing and I love sewing by hand.

I hope I find a reason to do something like this again.
