Credits

Aight, there's something like 8,000,000 images on this webpage-- let's credit them!

Most of the images here were made by me, but not all. Here's the ones I didn't make:

• Plastic canvas 'cup' is modified from CAN & BOTTLE COZIES, a leaflet from 2011. That's my hand holding it (the 'coffee' is actually molasses).
• Many thanks to Chezamanda for the Q-Snap photo, and CraftyAmigo.com for creating some excellent online pipe-modelling software. Also, that's my hand again.
• 'Sexy Woman' is by Josh Pereira at Unsplash.

The 'Junk Cross Stitches' were submitted by a whole crew of people from tumblr-- BIG thanks to you all! In order of appearance:

• Blessed are the Pure in Heart: unknown stitcher, photo by me.
• Coffee-stained Trio: with-stars-in-hand.
• Dusty Crusty Slowpoke: orlean-red.
• Rumpled Star Wars: gendervoidkillua.
• Teddy in the Grate: unknown stitcher again (probably not the same one but you never know), photo by me again.
• Color bleed Pusheen: fishiest-fish.
• Stained Periodic Table: doctor-lucifer-holmes.
• Stained Flower: inediblemints.
• Torn Plants Under the Bed: all me, babey.
• Stained Angel: thestitchetywitch.
• Badass Torn Skull: crispysparrow.

Again, thanks a million for letting me use your photos!

• That cursed tumblr skin hat guy is by whoever the hell made that ad in the first place. What a bizarre image. Why did they make that?
• 'Xstitch Designer Gold' is (was?) a real product advertised in the November 1994 issue of Cross Stitcher. Scanned from my own collection. (Sorry mobile viewers, couldn't fit this one into the formatting for y'all)

The thimbles and hand featured in 'Merge Thimbles' are all from the Wikimedia Commons. In ascending order of point value:

• The plain thimble is from the Smithsonian Collection (it's from the 19th century!) and is a public domain image.
• The fancy silver thimble is from 1839, and is also a public domain image.
• The gold thimble is courtesy of the Missouri Historical Society, and has no known copyright.
• The enamel thimble with two figures is from the Cleveland Museum of Art, and is in the public domain.
• The enamel thimble with flowers is courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and is in the public domain.
• The pointing hand belongs to Wikipedian Pogrebnoj-Alexandroff, and is licensed under an Attribution-ShareAlike license, so-- 'Merge Thimbles' is also released under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License!

And, finally--

• The little old lady (not visible on mobile) is from a vintage 1937 Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad advertisement found on eBay.
• Homestar Runner and the Homestar Runner Logo are by The Brothers Chaps.
• ...and that pesky popup is, to my knowledge, as old as dirt. Will we ever know who first created it? I doubt it.
