Simple Earth Cross Stitch Pattern

April 21, 2021 by Sarah White

This little Earth cross stitch pattern is great for beginners and would be cute in an Earth or solar system themed room.

The design, from And Wabi Sabi, is 43 by 43 stitches, or 2.79 inches on 14 count fabric.

It looks like is just uses three colors and the shapes of the countries are simplified so this should be a pretty quick stitch.

The pattern is available for purchase on Etsy.

    I’m sorry you’ve had many negative comments related to no more images. As a country we are always looking for instant gratification it seems. And the images contributed to that. HOWEVER, all I have to do is read the title and brief description to decide if I want to go to that particular craft. Not hard to do.
    Thanks for telling us why- I had wondered about it but definitely not upset. I look forward to each day’s newsletter- with or without images!

All About Stitching on Perforated Paper

I recently wrote a post on my blog about using a stitchable journal cover and I mentioned that you can make your own stitched cover for a journal by using perforated paper instead of buying a stitchable notebook.

I have to admit, though, that I’ve never used perforated paper for cross stitch myself. I definitely want to because I think it would be great to use for bookmarks that don’t fray and have a little more stability, for example.

Sirious Stitches has us covered, though, because they did a deep dive into all things perforated cross stitch pattern that is worth the time to read through.

The post mentions that a lot of people use perforated paper for cross stitch because they buy an ornament kit that uses it. I’ve never seen these (or at least never noticed that that is what they were) but it’s a great idea to make small projects like ornaments in this way. It also talks about the pros and cons of using cross stitch paper, where to buy it and how to make your own. 

Making it yourself is an awesome idea because if you already have a pattern in mind you can just make holes in your paper where you need stitches to be and leave the rest solid. This would be ideal for making greeting cards, for example.

In addition to kits and sheets you can often find the paper pre-cut into different shapes you can use to make your own designs, no real pattern required.

The post also includes tips and advice for how to stitch on perforated paper that you’ll want to check out before you try your first project.

I’m super intrigued by the idea of using perforated paper for cross stitch and will probably be trying it out soon. Have you used it before? I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Check out the post over at Sirious Stitches for more information.
