5 out of 5 starsEasy to follow pattern. I highly recommend cross stitching HTD's bird designs on linen or lugana weave to make the beautiful colors stand out even more.

4 out of 5 starsCute pattern! PDF slightly low res quality when you zoom in but still very easy to follow. Very keen to finish the piece and see the finished product
About HawthornTreeDesigns
-
Most of my charts are designed for DMC stranded cotton - I 've built up quite a stash over the years! -
Did I mention I like birds? These patterns are my favourite thing to make and I have a growing flock! -
I prefer to stitch on evenweave fabric but most of my charts work just as well on Aida. -
I love designing patterns of birds from around the world, like this California quail. -
Some of my birds are also available as kits made with quality materials.
Inspired by history and nature; created for the modern stitcher

Frequently asked questions
Custom and personalised orders
I do not currently accept custom orders but I am happy to accept suggestions for patterns, especially birds. Please get in touch if you have a favourite bird you'd like me to design.
Do you sell completed cross stitch items?
Cross stitch is a very time-consuming form of embroidery and unfortunately this means that making larger cross stitched items to sell is not practical; they would simply be too expensive. However, I do make small cross stitched items such as ornaments and greeting cards. See my shop sections for details.
Are your patterns compatible with embroidery machines?
All patterns are currently only designed for hand embroidery and are only available in PDF format.
Will there be any more bird designs?
Yes! Birds are one of my favourite subjects and I'll definitely be adding more over time. If you favourite my shop you will receive updates every time I add something new. Do you have a favourite bird you'd like me to design? Send me a convo and I'll do my best to make it happen!

I haven't received my files. Where are they?

If you have an Etsy account you can also access your digital files at any time in the Purchases and Reviews section of your profile. You can download the files from there.
How do you calculate your shipping prices?
My shipping prices cover the three main costs of processing your order. I use Royal Mail for all my parcels and this accounts for the bulk of the shipping price. I then add on the costs of the packaging and the time it takes me to process your order. I process all orders myself. I do not make any profit on shipping.
Can I sell finished pieces?
You are not permitted to sell finished pieces created from my patterns, even if you have customised them. I am happy for you to display finished pieces of my work publicly but I would appreciate a credit.
