If you want to add a little crafty flair to your holiday table or Thanksgiving decor, check out these cute and easy to stitch turkey cross stitch patterns.
Gobbles the Turkey from Wild Violet is mostly worked in shades of brown and features a face and a few feathers. It’s 45 stitches by 40 stitches, or 3.2 by 2.9 inches on 14 count fabric.
Stitchin Momma has a cute mini turkey cross stitch pattern but the sales page is low on details so that’s about all I can tell you. A similar looking pattern from Bella Rose Craft on Etsy is 2.79 by 3.14 inches and fits in a 4-inch hoop.
Speaking of minis, this tiny turkey from Etsy seller LaSelva Design looks more like a real turkey and packs a lot of detail into a little space. The pattern measures 31 by 34 stitches and uses 12 colors, and it fits inside a 3-inch hoop. This would be so pretty stitched on holiday napkins.
This old-fashioned-looking turkey pattern would be cute to have on display in the kitchen or to stitch onto an apron. It’s actually shown in the photo mounted on a wooden cutting board, which is a fun presentation. The pattern is rated easy and is available from Annie’s.
If you like the combination of pumpkins and turkeys, how about a turkey in a pumpkin? There’s no rule that says we have to be done with pumpkins after Halloween (and we certainly keep eating them at least until Thanksgiving). This pattern from Kits by SAstitch on Etsy is 68 by 90 stitches and uses 20 colors and three blends using some of the same colors. (Learn more about color blending with embroidery floss.) It uses regular cross stitch and back stitch to highlight parts of the pattern and for the Happy Thanksgiving lettering at the bottom. The little heart is a sweet touch, too.
