Give Thanks Embroidery


As I look forward to the coming holidays, I am reminded how important it is to be thankful everyday for all the gifts I am blessed with, large and small.

A few thanks for my journal today: gingerbread pancakes warm and crisp from the toaster, a hug from a customer, persimmons hanging high against a blue sky, cappuccino foam, birds on the balcony, afternoon silence and grace.


For the embroidery, I typed and printed the words in Word and traced them onto the fabric. I freehand drew the heart and randomly placed the french knots inside it.


For now it finds a home on the living room book case where all can be reminded of its message.
