No book with an Ancient Egypt theme is complete without the Tut himself, portrayed here in colorful cross stitch. Despite the impressive effect, this majestic mask of Tutankhamun design is straightforward to stitch. The gleaming gold effect is created with subtle shading of the embroidery cottons. The collar on his chest is inlaid with imitation colored beads and petals. For an even more impressive display, pair with the companion design *Egyptian Queen.* They make a lovely couple, pulled together with the same exquisite border pattern derived from decoration found in Tut's tomb. Stitch count 211 x 139, 15 x 10 inches finished. Want more?
