venndiagram2sets package does not allow pattern in fillACapB

Question

I am using the package venndiagram2sets and I was able to use patterns for most cases:

\documentclass[10pt,twoside,openright]{memoir}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[protrusion=true,expansion=true]{microtype}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{patterns}
\usepackage{venndiagram}
\begin{document}
\begin{venndiagram2sets}
    [tikzoptions={scale=.7, thick},labelNotAB={},labelA={},labelB={},shade={}, showframe=False]
    \begin{scope}[every path/.append style={pattern=north east lines}]
        \fillA
        \end{scope}
        \begin{scope}[every path/.append style={pattern=north west lines}]
            \fillB
        \end{scope}
    \draw (0,2.7) node {{A}};
    \draw (5,2.7) node {{B}};
    \draw (2.5,0) node {{AB}};
\end{venndiagram2sets}
\begin{venndiagram2sets}
    [tikzoptions={scale=.7, thick},labelNotAB={},labelA={},labelB={},shade={}, showframe=False]
    \begin{scope}[every path/.append style={pattern=north east lines}]
        \fillANotB
    \end{scope}
    \draw (0,2.7) node {{A}};
    \draw (5,2.7) node {{B}};
    \draw (2.5,0) node {{AB}};
\end{venndiagram2sets}
\begin{venndiagram2sets}
    [tikzoptions={scale=.7, thick},labelNotAB={},labelA={},labelB={},shade={}, showframe=False]
    \begin{scope}[every path/.append style={pattern=north west lines}]
        \fillBNotA
    \end{scope}
    \draw (0,2.7) node {{A}};
    \draw (5,2.7) node {{B}};
    \draw (2.5,0) node {{AB}};
\end{venndiagram2sets}
% \begin{venndiagram2sets}
%   [tikzoptions={scale=.7, thick},labelNotAB={},labelA={},labelB={},shade={}, showframe=False]
%   \begin{scope}[every path/.append style={pattern=north east lines}]
%   \fillACapB
% \end{scope}
% \draw (0,2.7) node {{A}};
% \draw (5,2.7) node {{B}};
% \draw (2.5,0) node {{AB}};
% \end{venndiagram2sets}
\end{document}

But it does not work for the last case:

\begin{venndiagram2sets}
    [tikzoptions={scale=.7, thick},labelNotAB={},labelA={},labelB={},shade={}, showframe=False]
    \begin{scope}[every path/.append style={pattern=crosshatched}]
        \fillACapB
    \end{scope}
    \draw (2.5,0) node {{AB}};
  \end{venndiagram2sets}

Error:

! Package tikz Error: Extra options not allowed for clipping path command..
See the tikz package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...
l.700       \fillACapB

How can I add a crosshatched pattern to the intersection in venndiagram?

I add a first step without a label following the code of a previous question...

Venn Diagrams and Patterns

You can see that \ofillACapB work. I leave to you to put a nice lable using \begin{tikzpicture} and \end{tikzpicture} out the enviroment {venndiagram2sets}. At the end you can use in math mode $\scriptstyle a=B$ instead of \tiny typical in text mode.
