Majestic Mess Designs was started by Kae (he/him) in 2018 to make nerdy, punk patches and jackets. The first Quests & Queers products were a line of patches of a 20-sided dice in Pride flag colors. While collecting flags, he noticed most were uncredited and given without any other context. He got curious about where they came from, so he started doing the research.
The first iteration was a zine called "A Brief History of Pride Flags" made in collaboration with Rebecca Mroczkowski (she/her) which was sold at Pride. A more complete digital edition is currently in progress, which includes interviews with as many creators as possible. If you know any queer flag or symbol creators, please encourage them to get in touch with us.
