Inkl. Steuern.
A brambling opens its wings above five nuts, with two still in their husks. This landscape PDF embroidery pattern places the other three loose below, alongside hanging beech leaves, branch detail and small frost marks.
Included with this design
The package contains the 16-page Stitch Guide PDF, a full-size A3 transfer PDF, SVG linework, white and transparent 600 dpi linework PNGs, a colour reference JPG, the thread-and-region CSV, READ_ME instructions and the Hand Embroidery Stitch Sampler, Essential Needlework Handbook PDF.
The design on cloth
Brambling Above the Frosted Beech Mast joins open wings to a detailed beech harvest. Keep the two husks and five nuts distinct, shade the orange shoulder accents, and preserve the gap beneath the raised foot.
From outlines to shaded surfaces
The guide maps 12 working regions with local stitch direction, strand count and DMC colour recipes. Use the region key and recommended sequence to follow the overlaps and changes in shading. Mapped techniques include divided turning long-and-short, fine split, turning long-and-short.
Scale and fabric planning
Artwork canvas: 300 x 232 mm, landscape, including the open background areas. Print the separate A3 transfer at Actual Size / 100% and check the 50 mm control bar. Guide previews are reduced. These are canvas dimensions, not a finished hoop, cushion or bag size. The Stitch Guide itself uses US Letter pages.
Choosing the ground fabric
Suggested fabric: deep-blue linen. The palette proposes 16 DMC shades for stranded cotton. Supply your own needles, hoop or frame and a transfer method suitable for the cloth. Test the transfer and physical thread colours on a small swatch first.
How are the five beech nuts arranged?
Two remain inside the open husks and three lie loose. Keeping that grouping makes the botanical detail readable below the bird's wider feather fans.
