Tis' The Season to Be Grateful Embroidery Design, Instant Download

Pumpkin parked up top doing double duty as a letter substitute. Tis the season to be grateful loops round it, with season and grateful drawn in flowing dark red cursive and the words to be standing in chunky dark green block caps underneath. Hanging off the word be theres a tiny green leaf sprig. Looks like a wood plank sign nailed above somebody fireplace round november.

Three threads needed. Pumpkin runs a solid orange fill with a quick green stem on top, script is deep maroon with a slim satin edge, block lettering matches the same green as the leaf. For the cursive sections I added a fluffed underlay run, that way the script holds smooth even on terry or stretchy french terry hoodies. Block caps use a tatami density at 0.4mm spacing, dense enough to keep shape across a 6 inch print without rigid feel. Stitch totals climb from 6,586 at the smaller end up to 14,161 at the biggest size, ideal for pillow fronts though kitchen napkins want the daintier end.

Every fall i get folks ordering this one for thanksgiving table linen sets. A customer dropped me a note round mid november last year, she had run four of these onto cream linen placemats and handed em out as her grown kids hosted their first solo thanksgiving meal. Said all four kids still pull em out every year. So thats the whole appeal really, its not loud or busy, its just warm.

Run it on cream, oatmeal, natural linen, or a pale sage cotton. The orange pumpkin and maroon script lean on that warm neutral ground to read clean. Avoid bright bleach white because orange goes flat against it. And busy plaid prints swallow the small leaf sprig so skip those too. Hoop with a midweight no-show cutaway, the cursive density is where stretchy fabric usualy puckers if backing is too thin. Pop the smallest 3 inch design near the hem of a tea towel or scale up to 6 inch for a runner middle.
