Oh yea! and if you missed the original nonograms, they can be played here!

The solutions to the nonograms all join together to form the design above.

It was a lot of fun balancing this design to work as a pattern versus working as a set of puzzles-- I may get together my notes on the creation of it sometime. :)

YO how much do you want them??
I found a guy who owns a club in Australia who says he has all of them-- 'all four', he says-- and will sell for AU $49.50 each, so roughly $32.15 US, plus shipping.
Here's his site:

It's a quick game, and a fantastic one-- apparently the dev lead is a history prof, and consulted with other historians during the making of the game, and it shows.
Also it lets you live out the dream of going to a museum, touching all the objects, and then getting to poke into the back rooms.

The game opens on Flag Day: everyone else is at a company picnic, so you've got the place to yourself.
You start in the public areas of the visitor's center-- exhibits, front desk, gift shop-- but later, you get to explore the back rooms, too, and learn more about the FULL history of the site.

You play Kendra Turner, an intern at a historical site: "Blackhaven Hall", a plantation that burned down during the revolutionary war and has since been restored. Kendra's the newest hire, and-- notably-- the only black employee, but she needs the credit for school, so you do what you gotta do.

found this post open in an old tab--- kerning for the second one is a little wack, but something like these? just as like a fun free gift kinda deal. :) I can tweak colors/spacing if you'd like, and pop either/both into a pattern maker and get a PDF or Pattern Keeper file.

Not quite the same thing, but I heard from some folks that some of the patterns from the Tom of Finland knitting book could be adapted to cross-stitch--

it's... also out of print, but it may be possible to source a copy secondhand

just for my personal case at least, the majority of my woes with social media went away when i started making posts like i'm talking to a friend
i wouldn't reiterate my most belligerent beliefs every hour to someone who agrees with me, nor make generalizing inflammatory comments they may be hurt by

Pattern for the modern one is on Etsy-- for M.C.'s, though, you'll have to hunt down a copy of Just Cross Stitch issue 01 secondhand.

man, good luck-- I've seen a lot of people lookin for those. Hopefully someone may have one they'd be willing to pass along!

actually--
I suppose the thing that makes pattern mills 'mills' is their quantity-over-quality approach, churning out bucketloads of patterns with little regard for quality... if someone is making a large quantity of decent patterns, that's not a mill-- that's just, like, a competent working artist

oh that's fantastic! Primes and negatives are great inclusions-- those often give young ppl trouble when they first met them, I dig the idea of introducing the idea earlier on!
