Rustic Deer Antlers Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Just the antlers, nothing else. No deer face, no body, no grass underneath. The design is the rack by itself, two sides rising from a shared point at the base and spreading outward with branching tines. Each side has 5 or 6 tines depending on the size you look at, the beams curve outward in that gentle natural arc, so it reads as a real rack shape and not a stylised graphic.

The fill is warm brown and the tines taper toward the tip the way real antler does. Its not an outline design, theres actual fill mass in the lower beam sections, but the density stays at about 278 stitches per unit so the whole thing sits flat and light on the fabric. Stitch count runs 2,250 on the 2-inch right up to 8,681 on the 7-inch, and the proportions stay wide at all sizes because antlers are wider than tall. The 7-inch size is 4.45 inches in height but 7 inches across, so plan placement for horizontal space, not vertical.

And thats actually one of the nice things about this design, it slots into places that taller designs cant. A pocket, a hat brim, a sleeve band, a narrow canvas tote strap panel. Last autumn one customer told me he used the 4-inch on the front breast of a canvas duck-cloth hunting jacket and it looked like the brand patch had come factory-fitted. Six sizes give you everything from a small hat accent at 2 inches to a full tote panel at 7 inches.

Works well on canvas, denim, woven cotton, felt, or any stable woven blank. Back it with a sew-in poly stabiliser that suits the fabric weight so the filled beam sections sit flat and dont pull the grain. Warm brown reads nice on natural canvas, oatmeal linen, or olive cotton twill. Skip stretchy fabrics without a proper topping or the taper tips will gap and the organic silhouette wont look clean.
