Must Make Modern Cross Stitch Patterns
Cross Stitch is a great hobby to keep yourself busy. I love taking it with me in my purse for a long car ride or while I am waiting at the doctor’s office. Cross stitch patterns have come a long way and you can find a ton of great modern cross stitch patterns that make a great gift or a nice addition to your home decor. I have put together a list of a few of my favorite modern patterns.

Geometric Superman
I am on a search for patterns that I can make that will fit in my little boy’s room. There are a ton of adorable female themed patterns so when I saw this super man I had to add it to my must make list! The modern geometric shapes and fun colors make this perfect for your super hero themed room whether that is for your little boy, your partner, or even your special little girl. You can also find Wonder Woman, Pocahantas, Rapunzel, Ariel, Belle, and tons more awesome modern geometric patterns in THIS SHOP.
Rainbow Heart
I have seen this pattern using french knots for embroidery but I had never seen it in cross stitch. I love the rainbow and this pattern is perfect for beginners because it is super forgiving. If you don’t get it exactly right don’t worry nobody is going to know. You could make this one in tons of great color schemes so don’t be scared to take a few liberties with this pattern.
Geometric Manatee
We just got home from a trip to Florida. It was too hot to have seen any manatees but the signs for them were all over the place. This modern cross stitch pattern is so great and would be perfect for your beach themed decor. It would also make a great gift for any of your coast bound friends or family.
Four Seasons Tree
This pattern is so pretty. The tree motif is not so modern but the beautiful rainbow colored leaves make it fresh and new. This is another pattern where you could take some liberties and change up the color scheme, if you are thinking neon then we are right there on the same wavelength!!
Chevron
This cross stitch pattern would be so neat on a pillow or as napkins for your table. This would be so great with your mid century decor.
DNA
If you have any science lovers or doctors in your life then this pattern might be the one for you. The colors are fun and the subject is super neat! This SHOP also has lots of great subversive patterns if you want to be a little rebellious. Plus a few more great science related patterns.
Geometric Flamingo
A flamingo, need I say more? This reminds me so much of my flamingo paper piecing pattern that I had to throw it in with this list of must make patterns. How fun is the ombre flamingo with all the geometric variations.
Unicorn
I mean do I even need to explain how fabulous this one is, I think not! But I will anyway. You might already know that I love a rainbow (see these rainbow quilt patterns as evidence) but I also love a good unicorn. This would make a great decor for your nursery or even for your she shed!
Abstract Love Heart
How pretty is this? I think the heart made from the word love is so freaking clever. And it has that rainbow feel to it with the color scheme. Plus I pretty much love any cross stitch that is done on a black background.
Geometric Triangles
This modern cross stitch pattern is so pleasing to my eye. I love the unique and fun ways of making the same size triangle. I also super love the colors in this pattern.
Rainbow Quilt
This is about as simple as you can get with a cross stitch pattern. I love that this one would be easy to make while watching TV without too much thought. Try this one with the rainbow first and then go ahead and change up the color scheme. Ombre? Red and black check for Christmas? The options are endless! Don’t you love a versatile pattern?
Baby Whales
This is another pattern that would be perfect for a nursery. Give it as a baby shower gift or hang it in your own baby’s nursery. It is adorable no matter where it ends up!
Aww Snap!
Umm this is so fun. I think a retro camera will always be popular. Plus the cute little saying brings it into the now. This is a quick and easy pattern that you can whip up in no time.
Geometric Parrot
This unique little parrot is adorable and I need him in my life RIGHT NOW! The colors are perfect and he would make the perfect addition to a vacation tote or a big sun hat.
Hipster Giraffe
I mean a hipster. Come on, how fun is this giraffe. You can find a bunch more hipster animals in this shop as well so don’t forget to poke around and grab those as well to make the whole collection.
Abstract Geometric Shapes Modern Cross Stitch Patterns
Don’t we all love a good trio? This makes the perfect wall decor for modern space. The colors are great but you could easily change them out since the pattern is abstract. Use whatever colors fit your space.
