You know the saying “You are what you eat”. In a way the same is true for “You are what your home says about you”. Stitching an heirloom for everyday use in glorious colors, creating something that is uniquely yours and very special, being brave enough to mix things up the right way in a balance of classic and contemporary patterns and colors – that’s what cross-point is all about. And, it is still fast, fun and easy!
Whether you combine blue with yellow, coral or sand, or icy blues with a splash of  rich green and mushroom, or just love strong primary colors, or  prefer muted shades – cross-point™ offers you over 300 colors in over 50 patterns, in squares, long and short rectangles, upholstery and rugs for both newbies and experienced stitchers. To inspire you, herewith some color and scheme suggestions:
