Listen I am ALL for supporting HIV patients (especially in this political climate) but if you’re going to use cross-stitch imagery in your marketing the absolute LEAST you can do is make sure the HOLES are lined up correctly, jfc

That last pic isn’t even stitching! Wtf are we doing here, gang
A NYC subway billboard for the AIDS Health Foundation that reads “HIV STIGMA SUCKS” in the style of a seemingly lifelike cross-stitch sampler A close-up of the H in “HIVcare.org.” The stitches clearly do not line up with the holes, suggesting that this pattern was photoshopped over a blank Aida cloth background A close-up of the floral border around the billboard. Not only do the stitches not line up, but there are also too many stitches present for the size of the Aida cloth A close-up of the AHF logo, which isn’t cross-stitch at all but a diagonally knitted dishcloth with an unmistakable purl border around it

ALSO I now have a tiny little section of my shop just for these kinds of patterns so that's fun (even thought it lays bare how much my e-commerce design talents leave something to be desired)
Listings for both the "Be Vigilant. I Love You." design and the "Fix Your Hearts Or Die" design on Etsy, under the subhed of Pop Culture Protest Art

Two cool things:
1. It took a few days of navigating online bank weirdness, but I finally put in the first donation for SRLP!
2. Somebody posted a review photo of the new pattern and !!!!!! oh no, my heart
A picture of the Twin Peaks "Fix Your Hearts or Die" pattern from the NeedlePopCrafts Etsy page. They clearly used the glow-in-the-dark green thread that's recommended in the pattern, which rules.
