Doodles: Thanksgiving by Heart in Hand Needleart is a warm autumn cross-stitch design featuring a cheerful turkey surrounded by seasonal motifs, including a pumpkin, leaves, and other harvest-inspired details, finished with the word “THANKFUL.” The rich fall palette and whimsical sampler-style arrangement make this a charming project for Thanksgiving decorating, seasonal displays, or a handmade gift.

The design measures 66 stitches wide by 65 stitches high and is modeled on 36-count Antique Lace linen stitched over two threads with one strand of floss, for an approximate finished design size of 3.6 by 3.6 inches. The chart uses Classic Colorworks and Weeks Dye Works threads, with DMC conversions provided, and includes a brown bead embellishment. Backstitching for the pumpkin vine is worked with one strand of Grape Vine.
