Ruby Red Robin

A robin with grey wings stands facing left for a Winter or Christmas display. The bird features a black beak and a red chest.

The design

The head and back use blocks of grey. The chest area displays solid red. Below the wings, the belly is cream. The bird has black legs and black backstitch outlines around its feathers. The piece is shown framed on green fabric and stitched on oatmeal Aida.

Stitching it

This intermediate pattern uses full cross stitches and backstitch. The chart requires 8 DMC colours. An 8-inch hoop fits the size.

Finishing it

The completed project works displayed as wall art, a greeting card, or an embroidery hoop. It suits birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts.
