Give Thanks - Embroidery Pattern Download

I know we still have a couple of weeks until November comes...but I am helping you get a jump start on the month of giving thanks with a free embroidery pattern...

...it's simple and sweet and can be stitched in an evening!  I was inspired to design this pattern after a couple of weeks of not so great and great things all rolled into one whole.  Have you ever had a time in life like that...you know, the worst of times and the best of times?  One of the greatest skills we have been given is the ability to choose.  

Whenever things get overwhelming the only way I get out of it is to choose to look for the blessings in my life.  These past few weeks we have had a lot of blessings and my greatest are my family and this beautiful place we live....which makes everything else all ok!

1. To print off the pattern, right click on the image below and print off on your home printer. It is sized for a 9" oval hoop. 
2. Take a 10" square piece of black cotton fabric and a piece of cotton batting the same size and stretch into the hoop.  
3. Trim off the edges.
4.  You will need to trace the image with a light box and a white fabric marker pencil. 
5.  Using ECRU DMC floss, back stitch the stems and words using all six threads.
6. Laisy Daisy the leaves.
7. Wipe off any extra markings with a damp cloth and let dry.
