Gobble! Gobble!
In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast which went down in history as the first Thanksgiving. This harvest meal has become a symbol of cooperation and interaction between English colonists and Native Americans. While the menu most likely did include turkey I doubt they would have eaten this cute little guy. Our turkey is hand painted on Zweigert Mono 14 count canvas and is ready to give thanks for a good year.

He's just awfully cute - and what fun it would be to stitch those tail feathers!!
I'm thinking of doing him myself when I get back home. Since he's really not that big I thought it would be an opportunity to use up some of those leftovers I have from other projects. The body however I want to do in fuzzy stuff so it looks feathery.
