Let Us Be Truly Thankful, the May Flowers Edition

Here is my “May Flowers” adaptation, the fourth in my mad-designer plan to put Thanksgiving into every season! If you stitch every installment in the coming series, they will all fit in the same frame, giving you the ability to swap them out and celebrate Thanksgiving all year long.

In addition to being available in my etsy shop as a mailed pattern, I have decided to keep this series available in PDF format indefinitely, for a lower price of $7 each... simply email your request (beth@heartstringsamplery.com), and I will respond with the emailed file(s) within 24 hours of payment (in most cases you will receive it in less than an hour, since I check my email almost constantly when I'm home).

What I've Been Working On

The sampler that I've recently given you a few peeks at is almost finished. But it has taken nearly 2 solid months, which feels like an eternity to this quick stitcher.

So this weekend, while spending lots of time on the couch getting over my cold, I started and finished the next Let Us Be Truly Thankful. I am calling it the May Flowers Edition.

It felt so good to both start and finish a piece in just two days. So good, as a matter of fact, that I attacked the aforementioned big sampler with a vengeance, and am now just an hour or two away from finishing.

Which means I can finally allow myself to pull threads for the next sampler... another new design that I have been itching to get started for the last month.

So keep your eyes open, because the plan is to have two new patterns available by this Friday.
