    Monarch of the Glen

    Hunters used to mount stag heads on their walls as trophies, but we far prefer Maria Diaz’s beautiful stitched design!

    Picture this, you’re taking a stroll through a rural woodland. Around you everything is still and silent, blanketed by mist and snow. Then suddenly you emerge into a clearing and a huge, stately stag turns and fixes its gaze on you, just for a moment, before disappearing into the mist. Can anything seem more magical than this unexpected encounter?

    Maria Diaz’s entrancing design captures this spine-tingling experience, from the rustic setting to the stag’s proud expression. Stitch it for your own wall or for a nature-loving friend.

    This is a pdf article, first published in Cross Stitch Collection magazine. It includes all the cross stitch charts you need to stitch this design. Any reader offers or promotions featured were correct at the time of publication, but may no longer be available.
