Working through the thread map
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 leaf long-and-short, fine split, discreet couch tacks.

Preparing the transfer
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.
The suggested palette
Suggested fabric: deep teal-blue linen. The palette proposes 19 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.
Reading the composition
Hornbill Above the Fig Vault is built around a lifted wing and a clearly separated airborne pose. Keep the feet above the branch, follow the pale tail through its black band, and shade each of the six figs individually.
Does the pattern show two raised wings?
One raised wing is visible. Keep the supplied wing fan and both airborne feet rather than adding a second visible wing to make a balanced silhouette.
