Réunion Cross Stitch Pattern: Tiny Flag Map

A Réunion cross stitch pattern in mini flag map form, with the Lambrequin unofficial regional flag set into the island outline: yellow rays radiating from a central point across the deep blue field, the bold red triangle anchoring the south, and the country name stitched into the red. A small finish for stitchers planning a Piton de la Fournaise climb, the Mafate, Cilaos, or Salazie cirques, anyone with Réunionnais roots, or building an Indian Ocean country wall in mini hoops. Browse the full Tiny Little Countries collection for more.

Full cross stitches with backstitch outlining the rays, flag divisions, and the dramatic island coastline. With 674 cross stitches and a four-colour palette, the Lambrequin design gives Réunion a bold, instantly recognisable identity at small scale. Small enough for a 4 inch hoop, finishable in an evening or two. There's something deeply satisfying about finishing a little project, framing it, and moving on to the next one.
