Hello, welcome back to our blog. In the previous article, we shared 50 border cross stitch patterns which you can download for free here. For this article we will share two cross stitch graduation patterns free.
This isn’t the first time we’ve shared a graduation cross stitch project. Previously we shared 2 graduation cross stitch projects inspired by food. You can read the article here.
For the first project in this edition, we got inspiration from ice cream, while the second pattern was inspired by cacti.
The pattern in this project is the second edition of 5 graduation cross stitch patterns that you can download for free here. For more details, let’s move on to the first cross stitch project.
GRADUATION ICE CREAM CROSS STITCH
This first cross stitch pattern sketch is one of the initial sketches we made. Before we can make a cross stitch pattern, we make cross stitch embroidery by tracing this sketch on cross stitch fabric with carbon and then we embroider from the trace. You can watch the video how we made cross stitch without pattern in our Youtube Channel here.
You can see the sketch below is scuffed and dirty. After we were able to make a cross stitch pattern, we also made a pattern from this graduation ice cream sketch.

This pattern design is in the form of ice cream with a toga-shaped decoration on top. At the bottom of the ice cream is written the words “HAPPY GRADUATION”. This pattern consists of 12 colors. You can download the pattern for FREE here.
After you download the pattern, the next step you have to do is prepare the tools and materials. Please read here for the cross stitch kit article.
Below are some photos of our first graduation cross stitch project.

We hope you like this graduation cross stitch. The second project is cactus graduation cross stitch. Let’s move on to the second cross stitch project.
GRADUATION CACTUS CROSS STITCH
The second project we will share is a graduation cactus cross stitch. Just like the first project, this sketch is also an initial sketch that I drew so the sketch is dirty and scuffed as below.

This pattern design is a cactus in a pot. The cactus is decorated in the form of a toga and also has a medal attached to it. At the bottom of the cactus is written “CONGRATS”. This pattern consists of 13 colors.
You can download the pattern for FREE here. The pattern you download is in jpg format.
Once the tools and materials are ready, the next step is embroidery. For those of you who are still beginners, you can read the article on how to embroider for beginners here. Meanwhile, for those of you who are already skilled, happy embroidery.
In my opinion, when making cross stitch you can improvise according to your creativity. Starting from color selection to the media you use for embroidery.
