Gifted Gorgeousness February Link Up Post

The first link up was an enormous success with 40 people linking up to share their Gorgeousness.
I thought there were alot of generous bloggers out there and this confirms it all.

  Gifted Gorgeousness

For newbies, this is my first year long SAL.  Click on the picture above for the full details.

We will be posting and linking up on the 15th of each month, because it is 2015.  Should be easy to remember.

In January I was also taking part in the DUCJC in memory of SoCal Debbie so I have many projects to show you!

Of the above designs, two have been stitched on in February - Prairie Moon and Madame Chantilly.

And now over to you - Here is the place for you to link up so we can see what Gifted Gorgeousness you have been stitching so far this year.  Please use your name or your blog name in the field NOT the words "January Update" so I can easily see who has linked up this month.  And link to the actual post, not just your blog.  Thank you.  I can amend links if you make a boo-boo though.

Finally, we have a little Gifted Gorgeousness Giveaway this month thanks to the Gorgeous Gillie!  When I announced the GG project she sent DMC threads to me and to Jacquie, she also did a draw and sent threads to Sheila.  This time she is donating a wonderful chart just for the GG link-ups.

Earth Sampler by Primitive Needle

All you have to do is link up your GG post above AND leave a comment here clearly indicating that you wish to be in this GGG (Gifted Gorgeous Giveaway).  The words "Yes please, include me in the draw" are recommended as clear and non-ambiguous LOL.  One name will be drawn at random on the 1st March when the link-ups are closed and announced on next month's post.   Good Luck!

Love all of your Gifted Gorgeousness projects Jo! Wonderful stitching and just proves how generous us stitchers are. Please don't include me in the draw as I have more than enough stash but thank you to Gillie for being so kind!

I think my link worked; I'm on mobile and can't tell if it linked to the desktop version!

You have a lot of magical gorgeousness going on! This month's favorite is the Winter Typography, perhaps because we're due for some real snow. It has a lovely 3D look to it.

Gillie is quite in the spirit of the giveaway! I will pass on this one or I'll never make a dent in anything haha. :)

Christine said...

Again you outdo us all Jo :)
Lovely projects, and yes please to the draw

jocondine said...

You're right, generally generosity generates great goals to/for? your genial GG, good girl ;) That Nora Corbett J looks lovely. xxx

geeky Heather said...

What a lot of lovely eye candy again this month!! I won't pick a favorite until you are father along. =) You have made some really good starts, though! Sweet Gillie! I love that chart, but I will love watching someone else stitch it more than I would love stitching it, so don't enter me. =)

wow.. love your gifts which you've been stitching all these while.. great choices... thank you for organizing this long SAL which I must say.. it had prompt me to stitch all the items I had kept as a gift.
Also.. please put me name into the draw. "Yes please, include me in the draw"... I'll go around and see what's interesting to stitch as gifts.. ;)

Shebafudge said...

Look at all your projects! They look lovely. I've linked-up! Also, yes, please, include me in the draw! :D

Mrs Milkybar Kid said...

Beautiful stitching of course! I should have saved my last blogpost for today shouldn't I! I think this is such a fantastic idea for a SAL Jo. With all the drama that goes on in some corners of the stitchy world, this is a really positive reminder of how awesome stitchers are!

sew.darn.quilt said...

Your stitchery is so pretty and so diverse. Lovely work, Jo!
Yes please, include me in the draw! Thank you Gillie for offering this lovely chart ")

Kaisievic said...

Oooh, Jo, I mucked up and linked to my blog not my post (which is yet to be written!), so sorry, can you fix it once I get the post done? Which may not be until tonight now as I have to leave for work soon! Aaagghh! I have been telling everyone in blogland that I am all over the place! Please enter me in the giveaway, too, I love that design. And, as always, thanks for organising this SAL. hugs, Kaye

the grey tail said...

oh, your stitching is incredible! I can't believe you got all that as gifts!
YOU LUCKY B@§#°#D!! :D :D
I had to plan a few new starts just because I couldn't wear out the gifted scissors excuse any longer - the things we do to please you! ;) :D
I would love to enter the GGG even though I cannot imagine adding one more start to this already dense month, even though this one would be seriously cute.
thanks again to you and Gillie, it was so very sweet of her!
big hugs,
chiara
