E/V Nautilus Cross Stitch

Cross stitch, embroidery, and needlework skills have been proven to decrease anxiety and increase mental sharpness. Students creating cross stitch or needlework art not only create superb art but it also seems to provide calmness to the entire class. The struggle exists to find meaningful designs that meet students' scientific mindset while also being aesthetically pleasing. These designs were created with those students in mind. This activity allows students to create two different cross stitch designs, one of E/V Nautilus and one of a flap jack octopus.
