Cross- Stitch Chart – Stitch a Little Thanksgiving Turkey

know I missed Canadian Thanksgiving by a few days, but there’s still plenty of time to stitch up something cute if you’re an American looking forward to that holiday.

Ring Cat Designs has a super cute little turkey cross stitch pattern that I think would be adorable stitched on a set of linen napkins. Now you have your project for the next month.

Or you can just use the little guy on a card or in a wee frame (it’s a little less than 2 inches by a little more than 2 inches, or 25 by 31 stitches). It uses six colors but should still stitch up in a flash.

You can get the pattern from $3 on Etsy.

Looking for more Thanksgiving themed Cross-stitch patterns and charts? Check out these Thanksgiving-themed Cross stitch designs on Etsy.

Mango Charm Studio doesn’t have a huge collection of cross stitch patterns in their Etsy shop, but at the risk of repeating their own descriptor, the designs they do have are charming, pretty and cute.

This shop has cross stitch patterns and bookmark designs, as well as a few laser designs you can use to cut your own signs. But that’s a different craft, so let’s focus on the cross stitch.

The bookmarks are the only section that is separated out, but there aren’t a lot of patterns to scroll through in their general cross stitch art category. You’ll find a lot of flowers, from marigold to lily of the valley, gladiolus to carnation.

It turns out these are all birth flowers, and there’s also a set of all 12 designs if you want to buy the bundle and stitch them up for everyone’s birthday.

When it comes to bundles, though, I can’t resist sharing the mini coastal cross stitch pattern bundle, both because this shop is based in Maine and that feels appropriate, and because there’s a big place in my heart for New England costal icons.

This set of nine designs includes a sand castle under an umbrella, a shell, sailboat, lobster, lighthouse, beach house, whale tail, blueberry plant and anchor.

The pieces range in size from 10 by 34 to 35 by 34 stitches, and in all only seven colors are used. These would all fit in 3 or 4 inch hoops if you want to make the whole set in little frames like they are shown.

In addition to flowers and coastal designs, you’ll also find Halloween cross stitch patterns (including a full set of ghosts and their hobbies, and a vintage fortune teller design), Mediterranean tile designs, little houses, fruits and black cats.

The bookmark section includes seasonal book stacks, flowers, a couple of geese and a best dad ever with mountain design.

It’s a small but sweet selection that you should check out at Mango Charm Studio on Etsy.
