This is a variation on Monopoly, produced by the DMC Corporation, who makes embroidery floss. This version is thread and needlecrafting themed. Instead of properties, players collect stitching techniques. According to the website at http://www.dmc-usa.com/majic/pageServer/1l0100028r/en_US/Stitch-opoly.html , all property cards also feature a stitch diagram for the design on the card.
