    Well now there's a page describing how to make a BSD Daemon wall flag without using fabric printing!

    Unfortunately, her advice is "Have your mom spend months hand-stitching it!", which may not work for everyone.

    You know you have a good product when someone spends 250+ hours to create an homage to it. I wonder if anyone ever has done something like that for Microsoft?

  5. Cross Stitch by Sparr0 · · Score: 4, Informative

    This method is known as cross stitching, and its pretty easy to find software to plan it out. If you plan to do it on a smaller scale you might want to consider techniques for producing stitches that look the same (no ugly lines) from both sides, which about quadruples the stitch planning complexity.
