Sage Grouse 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.
A pointed tail fan rises behind the sage grouse's white breast. Paired muted-yellow skin areas sit within the display, while low sagebrush and stones leave the bird's unusual proportions unobstructed.
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: Stony earth and footing; Two sagebrush branches; Pointed high tail fan; Mottled wings and black belly; White display breast; Skin sacs, head and eye comb; Two feet on the stones.
What needs particular attention in the grouse display?
Keep the small head, white breast and paired skin areas in proportion to the larger fan. The guide separates these forms rather than treating the display as one feather texture.

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 smoky blue-plum 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.
