Did you know?
The bald eagle is North America's iconic raptor and the national bird of the United States, chosen in 1782 for its strength, freedom, and majesty. These remarkable birds of prey can live 20 to 30 years in the wild and are known for their extraordinary eyesight—nearly eight times more powerful than human vision. With wingspans reaching up to 7.5 feet, they were once hunted to near extinction but have made a remarkable comeback thanks to conservation efforts, and are no longer listed as endangered.

Pattern description
This intermediate counted cross-stitch pattern captures a majestic bald eagle in profile against a serene blue sky. The design uses 17 DMC thread colors to render the bird's distinctive features: a golden-yellow beak, piercing dark eye, pristine white head feathers, and rich chocolate-brown body plumage. The color palette balances cool blue tones with warm earth shades, creating visual depth and dimension across the 135 × 135 stitch count.
Perfect for bird enthusiasts and wildlife lovers, this eagle pattern works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric and makes a striking wall hanging or framed needlework gift. The moderate skill level suits stitchers with some experience who enjoy detailed color blending and shading. Whether displayed in a rustic cabin, patriotic home décor scheme, or nature-themed room, this portrait brings the quiet strength and nobility of America's national bird into your home through timeless embroidery.
