I wanted to share a little something for Cinco de Mayo, but not of the culturally stereotypical type stuff you normally see this time of year.
I thought a Mexican flag cross stitch pattern would be great, but strangely enough I couldn’t find one.
Admittedly all the detail around the eagle is complicated to chart out.
I did find a Mexican flag bead pattern from Kandi’s Patterns, which isn’t a perfect representation but is actually pretty good.
If you’re willing to buy a pattern I found two crochet patterns for Mexican flags: one from Cuddle Up Creations and the other from Cozy Concepts. Because crochet patterns are presented in a chart form, you can use them as cross stitch patterns as well.
If anyone out there has a source for Mexican flag cross stitch patterns, I’d love to know about them!
