I have ten years experience as an HLTA in a primary school, primarily working with Year 6. Over the years, I have created a bank of resources which I hope may prove useful to others as time savers.

Here are two simple, fun cross stitch patterns to use with KS2 pupils, although they may be suitable for upper years of KS1 also.
The pattern charts are on pdfs. They have coloured blocks. Each block is equal to one cross stitch.
I have also included some basic cross stitch information/instructions and a photograph of the finished picture.
The patterns are stitched on 6 count binca material and obviously can be completed in any colour combinations.
The wing shapes are completed in simple back stitch.
Have fun and I hope your pupils enjoy stitching the pictures.

I have included some basic information/instructions and a pattern as a pdf with coloured crosses. Each cross on the pattern = one cross stitch.
The pattern is stitched on 6 count binca material and obviously can be completed in any colour combinations. The border can be cross stitched, a simple back stitch or left blank.
Have fun and I hope your pupils enjoy stitching the design.

A fun set of mini cross stitch pattern motifs to use with KS2 pupils, although they may be suitable for upper years of KS1 also.
I have designed and completed many cross stitch projects with KS2 pupils. However, many of the simpler motifs could be suitable for Upper KS1.
**There are 20 motifs included in the pack. **
The patterns are all pdfs. They are included in a zip file. Please unzip to access.
Patterns included:
Ship; Globe; Magnifying glass with bug (science); Football; Computer screen; Abc/123/Maths symbols; Sport trophy; Christmas Tree; Holly;
Books; Art; Music; Butterfly; Crown; Bee; Union Flag; Umbrella; Heart.
The motifs range from those which are very simple to complete to others which have more detail to them.
All are quick to sew. Most motifs are approximately 8cm - 10cm (3”- 4”).
.
Each cross on the pattern = one cross stitch. There is also a sheet which contains photos of all the finished motifs as guidance.
The patterns are stitched on 6 count binca material using 6 strands of thread at a time (to create sufficient thickness) and obviously can be completed in any colour combinations.
All lettering on the motifs is completed in back stitch.
The borders can be cross stitched, a simple back stitch or left blank.
I have also included a sheet containing basic ‘how to’ cross stitch/back stitch instructions.
The pack represents good value for money as the motifs are varied and can be used for many different occasions – or just for fun – individually or part of a larger project. A great time saver.
I hope your pupils enjoy cross stitching!
