Description

"The year has turned its circle, The seasons come and go.  The Harvest all is gathered in, and chilly North winds blow... Orchards have shared their treasures. The fields their yellow grain.  So open wide the doorway... Thanksgiving comes again!” Gather with your loved ones this Thanksgiving to celebrate the season of gratitude. The tradition of giving thanks after the summer bounty takes place all over the world, but in North America, it is traced back to the 1621 celebration at the Plymouth Plantation, when the Pilgrims invited the local indigenous peoples to a harvest feast after a particularly successful growing season. Many people had starved the previous winter, but meanwhile, kind members of the local Wampanoag tribe taught the Pilgrims to grow corn, beans and squash, how to catch the local fish, and how to collect the seafood. These were all skills that were needed to survive in their new land. The original three-day feast apparently included goose, lobster, cod and deer, and the vegetables and berries they collected or grew. The Pilgrim Edward Winslow wrote about that now-famous meal, mentioning a wild turkey hunt that took place before the dinner, which may be where the idea of eating turkey came from. In this original sampler, you can see the beautiful basket of fruits and veggies at the top, then a scene showing the Pilgrims and Wampanoag tribe getting together, and finally a scene at the bottom of the sampler showing our modern Thanksgiving Day, boys playing football, and friends and family gathering around a groaning table. There are a number of specialty stitches to enjoy stitching. The Hardanger panel at the bottom is a perfect balance with the top basket and crows. I’ve always found that a sense of gratitude is essential to happiness and Thanksgiving is a perfect time every year to celebrate this together. - Thea
