Majestic Deer Mountain Forest Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Big deer scene, loads of detail. A full-body buck in black stands front and centre with 5 sizes ranging from 3.5 inches up to 7.5 inches wide, and youll count at least 6 tines on those wide branching antlers. The body has directional stitching running with the fur so it reads like an actual animal, not a flat blob. Behind him the scene layers up: jagged mountain peaks, a row of pine trees along the base, a full moon circle sitting high in the background, and a flock of birds scattered across the upper sky. Down at the bottom theres 3 smaller silhouettes, a doe and two others, which gives it that sense of scale.

Single colour, so no thread changes. Stitch count goes from 16,651 on runs from compact to 38,986 on the largest, and thats a proper chunk of stitches, so its worth making sure your machine is running smooth. Sections mapped in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio. The fill density anchors at 721 which is on the heavier side, so dont rush the speed on the dense fill sections.

Use a cutaway stabiliser here, jersey or fleece will shift on you mid-hoop without it. Slow your machine down to around 600 SPM on the mountain section where satin columns are close together. Charcoal fleece hunting jackets are my favourite fabric for this, the black thread pops really well against dark grey.

Ping me if you run into any issues. Customers have been buying this for cabin throw pillows and hunting jackets and honestly both look brilliant. One customer told me they stitched the 7-inch version on a tan canvas duffel for a Christmas gift last year, which is actually why I bumped this to a 5-size offering.
