"Thanksgiving" - A Thanksgiving Freebie

26  more days until Thanksgiving!!!! Can you believe it? 

Hands on Design - Year in Chalk - November

             

 Happy Saturday , ya'll. Welcome, friends.  I am already dreaming of turkey,  Mom's dressing, sweet candied yams , and potato salad. 

              My Fall 1869 Crock  freebie 

  I have been pouring over recipes trying to figure out what contributions that I can make .  The most requested recipe I get for every and any family get together is Frito Corn Salad . Though this is not a traditional Thanksgiving food , it is always gobbled up. But I am thinking of something different. 

   The Stitcherhood Autumn freebie and "Give Thanks" freebie by the The Primitive Hare. 

 Do you have any special sides that you like to make?

Today's little stitch is actually small but loooong. 


 It is simply called Thanksgiving and is a super quick stitch  since it is mostly letters. 

 The design size is 27 x 120. I stitched mine on 14 count aida which brought to it about  1 7/8" x 8 5/8" . 

 I had thought about finishing it into a little sign, but at the last minute I went with my good ole' stand by finish- a pin pillow. 

I only used 3 colors in this piece - DMC 782, 919 and 3371 . You could certainly use any fall colors that you like. 

If you are interested in adding this quick little stitch to your Thanksgiving mix, please check out the pdfs below. 

 Many of you know , but I always like to leave this little disclaimer.  

I stitch my little designs for fun and to decorate my home. I feel very blessed by this community and love sharing my little charts, but I am not a professional designer. And I do not have professional software. Thank you for understanding that I  have to put each page on separate pdf downloads because of the devices I use. I apologize for that.  And I am always grateful for your kind encouragement , your visits, and stitching my little designs. 

Because this chart is so large I included an enlarged version as well.

Happy Stitching, ya'll

  4. So cute, Thank you for the Thanksgiving Pin Cushion. I also fell in love with your Chicken Stack from yesterday, love the quilt blocks. I do not have a special side dish to share, my daughter has everything under control, so I get to enjoy the day. Hugs to you and family.

  5. Melisa, another adorable stitch. Thank you for sharing with us. I’m not famous for any of my Thanksgiving food 😂😂. I’m kinda box type cook, nothing much “home made”. At least the hubby, kids, grandkids and great grand kiddos eat it and are happy. The real Betty Crocker cook went from my mom right past me and straight to my daughter. 😂♥️😂❤️

  6. Thank you for your Thanksgiving design. Another quick, easy, and cute one.
    I'm always asked to bring the corn casserole or corn pudding as many call it to Thanksgiving dinner but like you, I'd like to try something new.
    Blessings :-)
