November Gifted Gorgeousness Link-up Post

       


Welcome to the November 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.


My main gifted project is my Halloween at Hawk Run Hollow which is my focus project for the year.  I've been working away on Block 9 recently.  The fill-in on the Mummy took for ever!  It still needs wrapping with straight stitches on top.

Just Nan's Scream House became a fully finished object:





The Stitchonomy SAL, The Cabinet of Curiousities, is finished now.

I also completed a block on my Joan Elliott Faces SAL.  The fabric was a gift:

This was a new start for Dark October.  This was a piece I bought with Birthday money back in 2020. It's by Mani di Donna and is going to be a Halloween Sewing Basket:

This is going to be my Dark 13 project and I plan to stitch it on the 13th of each month.

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 "November 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.

    Thank you for hosting GG again this month. Your stitching is lovely, I've enjoyed watching your HR piece come together. Joan Elliot piece looks lovely too, she really makes her faces come alive! Can't wait to see more of your Halloween basket, it looks great so far! Love your cabinet of curiosities...you've done a lovely job with that! Happy Stitching!

    Love all you work Jo.
    Are the houses hard to do? I would like to stitch a gingerbread house next year.

    You've had a wonderful month of stitching, Jo! That mummy will be so cute when he's wrapped up with stitches :) Love the Scream House as well--it's such a fun and unique finish! Have a wonderful week ahead ♥

    What a productive month for you! The mummy looks a little naked without his wrappings, though.
