Free Printable Cross-Stitch Pattern: “GOP: Ignoring Science Since Forever”

Hey there, science lovers and crafty activists! Today, I’m thrilled to share a free printable cross-stitch pattern that combines my two favorite things: STEM and snark. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by the willful disregard for science in certain political circles, this one’s for you. Behold: an iceberg design with the bold statement, “GOP: Ignoring Science Since Forever.”
As someone majoring in a STEM field, I’ve spent countless hours studying the wonders of the natural world, the intricacies of data, and the importance of evidence-based decision-making. It’s disheartening to see science dismissed, denied, or outright attacked for the sake of political gain. This cross-stitch pattern is my way of channeling that frustration into something creative, productive, and—dare I say—a little defiant.
Why an Iceberg?
The iceberg is a powerful symbol. What we see above the surface is just a tiny fraction of the whole picture—much like how scientific truths are often obscured or ignored by those who cherry-pick facts to fit their narratives. Climate change, vaccines, public health, environmental protection… the list goes on. The GOP’s track record on science is, well, chilling (pun absolutely intended).
About the Pattern
This cross-stitch pattern features a minimalist iceberg design with clean, bold lettering. It’s perfect for beginners and seasoned stitchers alike. Whether you hang it in your home, gift it to a like-minded friend, or bring it to your next science rally, it’s sure to spark conversation (and maybe a few laughs).

Why Science Matters
Let’s not mince words: science isn’t a belief system. It’s a method of understanding the world through observation, experimentation, and evidence. When politicians ignore or undermine science, they’re not just rejecting data—they’re putting lives at risk. From climate denial to anti-vax rhetoric, the consequences are real and far-reaching.
As someone in the STEM field, I know how hard scientists work to uncover truths and solve problems. It’s infuriating to see that work dismissed by people who are supposed to lead and protect us. But instead of just yelling into the void, I’m stitching my feelings into art. And I hope you will too.
How to Use This Pattern
- Download and print the pattern. It’s free, because science (and snark) should be accessible to everyone.
- Gather your supplies: Aida cloth, embroidery floss, a needle, and a hoop.
- Stitch away! Feel free to customize the colors or add your own flair.
- Share your finished piece on social media with the hashtag #ScienceNotSilence. Let’s show the world that we care about facts, evidence, and the future of our planet.
Final Thoughts
This pattern isn’t just a craft project—it’s a statement. It’s a reminder that science matters, that facts matter, and that we won’t stay silent in the face of ignorance. So grab your needle and thread, and let’s stitch our way to a better, more science-literate world.
Download the pattern, share it with your friends, and let’s keep fighting the good fight. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned in STEM, it’s that persistence pays off.
Stay curious, stay defiant, and keep stitching!
P.S. If you love this pattern, let me know in the comments or on social media! I’m always brainstorming new designs that combine science, activism, and a healthy dose of snark.
