To Do List Cross Stitch Pattern

Some to-do lists are too important to ignore. This punchy, high-contrast design offers a simple four-part plan for making the world a better place: Save the bees. Clean the seas. Plant some trees. Punch Nazis.
Stitched in bold dark gray with bright pops of color for each cause, this design is both a conversation starter and a battle cry — equal parts snark and sincerity. Whether you hang it in protest or just to keep your priorities in order, it’s a small act of resistance with a needle and thread.
This minimalist cross stitch pattern measures 144 stitches wide by 75 high, and uses seven DMC colors, making it an ideal project for beginner stitchers. The pattern is printed on a single sheet of cardstock: the front features a photo of the finished design, while the back includes a large, easy-to-read black and white chart with stitch count and full DMC color key.

How much fabric do I need?
To calculate the amount of fabric you will need for your project, divide the number of stitches by the stitch count of the fabric you wish to use. The higher the count of your fabric, the smaller your piece will be. Some examples appear below. Remember to leave several additional inches as a border on each side, to facilitate framing your project when it is finished.

Fabric count	Approximate size of stitched area
14-count	10 ¼" × 5 ¼"
18-count	8" × 4 ¼"
25-count	5 ¾" × 3"
