Welcome to the February Gifted Gorgeousness link-up. The link-up date continues to be the 15th and I will keep the link-up open until the end of each month so you have plenty of time if you are late posting.
The format remains exactly the same, there is a list of rules on the main sign-up page if you want to check what is required but basically anything connected to the word "gift" is allowed, whether it was a gift TO you or is a gift FROM you.
And here is where I finished the month:
(this photo is more accurate for colour matching)
My other gifted project is my Halloween at Hawk Run Hollow which is my focus project for the year.
Since the last GG I have stitched all of Block 2 and a good chunk of Block 3:
stitched over 1 on 25 count Cassia Rose evenweave from Chromatic Alchemy
Now it is your turn to show us your Gifted Gorgeousness for the month. Please use your name or your blog name in the field and NOT the words "February Update" so I can easily see who has linked up this month. And link to the actual post, not just your blog. It is easier if you copy and paste the link, rather than typing freehand.

Finally, yesterday was Valentine's Day which means I hosted my annual Secret Stitching Sweetheart Blog Hop. We had a lovely turnout of hearts and love. I hope you have all found your Sweetheart now! Here's a collage of the beautiful stitching sent to me:
What a gorgeous collection of hearts. You have been busy in the last week while!
ReplyDeleteThe hearts look great all together like that and it was a lot of fun
ReplyDeleteI love that collage of hearts, Jo. It would make an extraordinary Valentine card. Your Fairy Idyll is growing nicely, as is your Halloween project. I always enjoy seeing your stitching.
