This is something that I haven't done in AGES.  I know, I know, "ages" for someone my age is 2-3 years.  But nonetheless, even then there weren't such cute creative patterns.  Here are just a few that I have found.  I just found a new blog that I am completely in love with, called Sprite Stitch.  She does all sorts of gaming patterns, the Home Sweet Home Castle pattern is hers.  I don't know which one to start on.
