Description
Black Kite cross stitch pattern was inspired by a Faunaverse photograph of a Black Kite. Though this particular bird of prey was photographed in Australia by Alexander Dudley, the black kite also inhabits Europe, Asia, and Africa.
The Project
This great shot of the black kite in full flight is something you can stitch in a couple of days. We’ve removed the background for you and suggest a wide landscape (sky blue) with the bird sitting off-centre.
It’s lots of fun to stitch and we think you’ll particularly enjoy the thread changes around the wing tips, facial features and tail.
