New Zealand Aotearoa Cross Stitch Pattern: Tiny Flag Map
New Zealand Aotearoa in mini cross stitch has both islands stitched in the deep blue of the New Zealand flag with the Union Jack and Southern Cross stars picked out cleanly. A small finish for stitchers with Kiwi roots, anyone planning a South Island road trip or Bay of Islands holiday, or stitching their way through a country wall. Browse the full Tiny Little Countries collection for more.
Full cross stitches with backstitch outlining the islands, the flag divisions, and the stars. Small enough for a 4 inch hoop, finishable in an evening. There's something deeply satisfying about finishing a little project, framing it, and moving on to the next one.
