Size of map cross stitch patterns
All the country map patterns from our stitch a map series are designed for an 9 inch embroidery hoop when you stitch it on Aida 14 count cross stitch fabric.
Do you prefer a slightly finer look for your cross stitch project? You can also stitch the maps on Aida 16 count cross stitch fabric to make them fit in a 8 inch embroidery hoop.
Size of world map cross stitch pattern
There are a few map patterns in our collection with a different size. This includes our world map cross stitch pattern, because it needs more stitches to show all the country outlines in the pattern.
We designed the populair world map pattern to fit in standard wooden poster hangers of 50 cm wide, when stitched on Aida 18 count fabric. This way you can keep filling the map as you travel, withouth having to remove it from your frame.
You will also notice that the continent and the state map ornaments have alternative sizes. We always mention the Size in the product description.
What are the best materials for the cross stitch maps?
If you are a complete beginner at cross stitch we recommend you to stitch the maps on either:
- An 9 inch embroidery hoop with Aida 14 count cross stitch fabric. Aida 14 count fabric is the most populair cross titch fabric. This fabric has perfect squares, and easy to see holes for each of the 4 corners.
- Or an 8 inch embroidery hoop, in combination with Aida 16 count fabric to get a slightly finer look.

Alternative: Create a cross stitch map with a finer look
If you already have some experience as cross stitcher, you can also choose to go for an even finer look and a more traditional finish for your cross stitch project. We recommend that you choose between the following options:
- An 9 inch embroidery hoop with Evenweave 28 count fabric, stitched over 2. When you stitch over 2, you basically skip one hole and move to the next.
- Or an 8 inch embroidery hoop, in combination with Evenweave 32 count fabric, also stitched over 2.
