Gifted Gorgeousness July Link-Up Post

      

Welcome to the July 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.

None of my daytime pieces have a gifted component so I can't share them today, but fortunately my evening piece does.  This is, as ever, Annie Beez's 12 Days of Christmas:

This one isn't a gifted piece but I'll be stitching it on the 13th of every month for Dark Thirteen so you'll see this every GG post too.

This is Halloween Tiny Town from Heart in Hand Designs

Finally 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 "July 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.

Here's the portion I've been stitching this month:

I converted the purple colours to co-ordinate better with the fabric.

My evening piece, as ever, is Annie Beez's 12 Days of Christmas

Gifted Gorgeousness February Link-Up Post

 

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.

My focus piece for the month is not a gift but my evening piece has been.  I was given the chart for Annie Beez's 12 Days of Christmas for Christmas and plan to stitch one per month.  So I'll always have at least one thing to show for GG!

I'm using the DMC conversion but the house is very different to the cover which is more of a tomato shade.  I did change the pumpkin as that was supposed to be 761 which is pink.

Gifted Gorgeousness January Link-Up Post

 

Our new logo for the year is Couer de Sorciere from TraLaLa.  The chart was a gift to me which I stitched last year.

Please remember to change your badge and the link to the new page as the old link no longer works.  Don't forget to link up on the main sign-up page with your blog address.

I've completed the stitching now and just need to add the beads.

This is the start of the Halloween Tiny Town from Heart in Hand Designs:

I'm using the DMC conversion but I must say, it looks nothing like the cover photo so I'm not sure where they got the converted shades from.  I'll keep a closer eye on the next motif.
