This class is for everyone who wants to learn how to make their own cross stitch patterns, either from scratch or by combining elements of existing patterns into something new. We'll cover what makes a good cross stitch design, how to borrow and transform existing patterns, and how to come up with your very own. Attendees are welcome to design their patterns on paper or digitally. The class includes a quick tutorial in using FlossCross.com, a great free program for cross stitch pattern making.

For teens and adults (ages 12+).
