Made to look like the Bayeux Tapestry. It cracked me up.

where this and other fakes get posted frequently.

I have my own favorite embroidery, a fridge magnet that says "Screw the Golden Years." It was my mother's and it's now my favorite possession.

ETA: Ravelry just hit the four million subscriber mark. Also, there's an Etsy shop for, er, alternative cross stitch.
