Thanksgiving Cross Stitch Patterns

It’s a fine time to stitch up a turkey themed cross stitch pattern for Thanksgiving or any time you want to be reminded to be thankful.

This gobble til you wobble design from Small Cross Stitch Co is decidedly Thanksgiving in nature (unless you also eat turkey for Christmas). It has six options for wording to go under the turkey including “pour some gravy on me” and “Happy Thanksgiving.” Or you can just stitch up the turkey, which is only 36 by 34 stitches, or 2.6 by 2.5 inches/6.6 by 6.4 cm on 14 count fabric.

The Give Thanks tiny Quaker sampler form Studio HMP has a fall feel and would be pretty to have out throughout the season. This one is 79 by 79 stitches, which comes out to 5.9 inches/14.3 cm square on 25 count Laguna over 2 strands, which is what is shown in use in the photo (and which is similar in count to 14 count Aida). It uses eight colors.

Cute Patterns by Maria has this cute Happy Thanksgiving design that would be fun to stitch as is or you can take each of the icons and stitch them on napkins, an apron, or a tea towel. The design as shown uses 23 colors and comes out to 67 by 59 stitches. On 14 count fabric that is about 4.7 by 4.3 inches, or 12 by 11 cm.

Remember to be thankful all through the fall with this Thankful garland pattern from My Lovely Embroidery NB. It features five fall leaves with different things to be thankful for stitched on them. The font is pretty simple if you want to change the words, but the ones included are pretty nice. The design is 145 by 137 stitches, and uses 19 colors in full cross stitches and back stitching. On 14 count fabric it will be 10.36 by 9.79 inches, or 23.02 by 21.75 cm. The pattern includes measurements for other counts if you want to make it smaller.

Cross Stitch Patterns to Show You're Thankful

I already shared some cross stitch patterns specific to America 250, but if you want to cross stitch something more general for the Fourth of July, these patriotic sampler style patterns are a great place to start.

Stitch up some classic July 4th symbols, from the Statue of Liberty to hot dogs, with this sampler from Voluur. At 197 by 197 stitches, it comes out to 12.31 inches or 31.27 cm on 16 count fabric. It uses 38 colors and one blend, and has full and half cross stitches as well as back stitching.

This sampler from Wombat Stitching is a little more traditional, but it does still have fireworks, something that looks like an ice cream, birds in hats and a stack of sheep for some reason. This one uses nine colors and is 193 by 103 stitches. That makes it 13.8 inches or 35 cm on 14 count fabric.

This smaller sampler from Wonder Stitch US has a rocket, fireworks, flag, star and other elements. It is 86 by 86 stitches and uses 11 colors. On 16 count fabric it comes out to 5.5 inches, or 14 cm square. (I also love their Liberty design, with a house, woman holding a flag, a big flowers stitched like classic star motifs from quilting. There’s also a cat.)

Or try this one from Aliton Embroidery, which features a women in stars, stripes and a festive hat, an eagle, stars, fireworks and a flag, with a fun red, white and blue border. At 98 by 67 stitches, I think it uses five colors or thereabouts. It measures 7 by 4.8 inches, or 17.78 by 12.16 cm, when stitched on 14 count fabric.

Get a totally classic sampler look with this patriotic design that’s not specific to the Fourth of July. Made by Happiness is Heart Made, it features a house, flowers, hearts, classic starts, an alphabet, bunting and more. It uses four colors and measures 129 by 213 stitches. On 14 count fabric it measures 9.21 by 15.21 inches, or 23.4 by 38.6 cm.
