Cassowary hand embroidery pattern with a 20-page PDF stitch guide. This is a digital download for stitching by hand; no finished embroidery or supplies are included.

The cassowary's blue neck and red wattles rise above black plumage. Two broad leaves frame the bird, creating distinct areas for leaf veins, coarse feathers, smoother skin and the firm casque.

Inside the guide

A numbered map divides the design into 7 working areas. The guide includes stitch direction and sequence, preparation, practice samples, finishing guidance and 20 suggested DMC shades.

Working areas: Forest floor, palm rib and three fruits; Two shield leaves and their veins; Coarse black body feathers; Blue neck and facial skin; Casque, eye and pointed bill; Two separate red wattles; Strong feet and long inner claws.

Is the cassowary's neck treated like its feathered body?

No. The blue neck, red wattles, casque and black plumage are different surfaces. The guide separates their treatments rather than applying the same feather texture throughout.

Size and printing

The full design field is 23.2 × 30 cm, including margins, in portrait orientation. This is the drawing field, not the bird’s body length. Print the A3 PDF at Actual Size / 100% and measure the 50 mm control bar. Allow extra fabric beyond the field for mounting or sewing.

Before you stitch

Suggested level: intermediate to advanced. Use stable, even-weave linen, six-strand embroidery cotton, a fine needle and a frame that accommodates the design. The reference shows warm terracotta-grey linen. Test your transfer method and the suggested thread colours on your chosen cloth before starting; screen colours and thread dye lots vary.

File use

The PDF guide is in English. No physical item is shipped. The SVG contains linework, not machine-embroidery stitches. Lifestyle images do not include sewing patterns for the objects shown.

Personal, non-commercial use only. Do not resell, share or redistribute the files, linework or reference images.

Design note

AI tools were used in developing the design and reference visuals. Lifestyle images are digital placement concepts, not photographs of a stitched sample.
