Here you’ll find all my flag and symbol patterns! For more information on how to sew them, please see my patch pattern tutorial page and my text patch miniseries.
Header links will take you to posts demonstrating sewn examples (if available). Patterns are grouped by theme or shape. This page includes all bonus non-text and non-arrow patterns. It does not include my aro arrow patterns.
Notes on Pattern Structure
Full coloured blocks or crosses indicate a full cross stitch.
Outlines indicate backstitch.
Blocks or crosses divided on the diagonal by a line of backstitch, each half a different colour, indicate quarter stitches. Please see my first text tutorial for more information on backstitching outlines and placing quarter/fractional stitches.
Space for edging your patch is not shown in the patterns below. You’ll need to allow additional blocks for this when cutting your swatch, depending on how narrow or thick you like your edges.
5 Stripe Square / Caed / Demi Flag Patterns – 15 Block, 5 Stripe
The five-stripe, caed and demi flag patterns fit a square 15 stitches wide and 15 stitches high. Assuming a three stitch border, as for my other patches, this means you’ll want a 18 x 18 block swatch plus any excess (if used unmodified).
Apothi / Jump / Spike Flag Patterns – 15 Block, 5 Stripe
The apothi, jump and spike flag patterns fit a square 15 stitches wide and 15 stitches high. Assuming a three stitch border, as for my other patches, this means you’ll want a 18 x 18 block swatch plus any excess (if used unmodified).
4 Stripe Square / Demi Flag Patterns – 16 Block, 4 Stripe
The four-stripe, demi-rhombus and demi-triangle flag patterns fit a square 16 stitches wide and 16 stitches high. Assuming a three stitch border, as for my other patches, this means you’ll want an 19 x 19 block swatch plus any excess (if used unmodified).
8 Stripe Square / Vague / Demi Flag Patterns – 16 Block, 4 and 8 Stripe
The eight-stripe, vague and demi-rhombus flag patterns fit a square 16 stitches wide and 16 stitches high. Assuming a three stitch border, as for my other patches, this means you’ll want an 19 x 19 block swatch plus any excess (if used unmodified).
Aro-Ace / Spike / Greyromantic Flag Patterns – 16 Block, 8 Stripe
The aro-ace, stripe-spike and greyromantic flag patterns fit a square 16 stitches wide and 16 stitches high. Assuming a three stitch border, as for my other patches, this means you’ll want an 19 x 19 block swatch plus any excess (if used unmodified).

Zigzag Flag Pattern – 17 Block, 5 Stripe
The five-stripe zigzag flag patterns fit a rectangle 25 stitches wide and 17 stitches high. Assuming a three stitch border, as for my other patches, this means you’ll want a 28 x 20 block swatch plus any excess (if used unmodified).
Zigzag Flag Patch Pattern – 18 Block, Four and Eight Stripes
The four and eight-stripe zigzag flag patterns fit a rectangle 25 stitches wide and 18 stitches high. Assuming a three stitch border, as for my other patches, this means you’ll want an 28 x 21 block swatch plus any excess (if used unmodified).
The left-hand eight-stripe variant uses a quoiromantic quoisexual (or quoiro-quoix) flag with a black stripe at the top and bottom of the flag. This results in the additional line of black where the top black line meets the repeated sections of the black bottom line (and the bottom black line meets the repeated sections of the top black line).
This effect will occur with any flag that uses the same colour for both its topmost and bottommost stripes.
Heart Pattern – 15 Block, 3 and 5 Stripe

As this design is best stitched upside-down, the pattern is oriented to match.
Heart Pattern – 16 Block, 4 and 8 Stripe
The four and eight-stripe heart patterns fit a rectangle 17 stitches wide and 16 stitches high. Assuming a three stitch border, as for my other patches, this means you’ll want a 20 x 19 block swatch plus any excess (if used unmodified).

Heart Pattern – 18 Block, 3, 6 and 9 Stripe
