Bug cross stitch pattern PDF - a deep red stag beetle charted for beginners. Full crosses only, no backstitch, 10 DMC colors, instant download.

An insect cross stitch pattern for a single stag beetle seen from above, drawn flat and clean like an enamel brooch or a specimen plate. The shell is deep crimson shaded from dark rosewood through red copper to burnt orange, with white glints along the wing cases.

The antler-shaped mandibles, the legs and the antennae are picked out in golden yellow and tangerine, and the darkest shading is a near-black grape. The background is not stitched, so the beetle sits on bare fabric like a mounted specimen.

This is the second of a four-bug set drawn in the same style, so they can be stitched as a matching row.

Personal use

This pattern is for personal use. You can stitch it for yourself and stitch it as a gift. Please do not resell, share, copy or redistribute the files, sell the chart as your own, or use it for mass production. The design and the chart stay the property of Stitch Jam Studio.

Good to know

You are buying a PDF chart, not a finished piece and not a kit. No fabric, floss or hoop is included. Colors on a screen can look different from real DMC floss. The preview shows how the finished piece could look. Your result depends on fabric count and floss. Files are in English. You need a PDF reader to open the charts. Free ones work fine.

Returns

Because this is an instant download, all sales are final. No refunds, returns or exchanges once the files are available. If a file will not open, the download stops halfway, or you got the wrong item, message me and I will fix it.

  • Print it. Hoop it. Stitch it loud.
