Gifted Gorgeousness SAL ~ January

January 15th, 2015 brings me to the first post on


The idea here is to stitch a project that has, in some way, been gifted to you. Whether in part or whole, as long as "gifted" can be added to the description, you're good! You can even stitch a little something and gift it away, it counts as Gifted Gorgeousness. This is not a competition either, but a gathering of supporters brimming with encouragement for each other. There are no minimum or maximums, only those self imposed to the number of projects you work on, so with that in mind here is my Gifted Gorgeousness for January 2015.

Two Long~Eared Rabbits Poem
stitched on 18ct ivory aida with DMC floss
I'm waffling on the shade of green. 

A Nancy Turner design that I chose with a gift certificate I won back in December.
A modest beginning to the SAL by other's standards but I have other stitching on the go as well and maybe next month I'll be able to add a few smalls that will be Christmas gifts in 2015!
Until next time,


HAPPY STITCHING ")

    A new stitching blog! How exciting. Thanks for taking part in GG this month.
    This looks like a nice design. I do enjoy stitching lettering myself.
