I had no idea you could connect a Game Boy to a sewing machine. The Mario embroidery patterns actually look kind of cute now that they are working. It is nice to see people preserving weird pieces of history like this.

I wasn't sure whether this was emulating the sewing machine, or driving an actual sewing machine from the emulator -- it's the latter.

Followup request - digital emulated sewing machine! Should be a breeze based on the blog!

Wow crazy that there aren’t more screenshots of the actual software UI that’s what I was really hoping for here
