Gifted Gorgeousness - JULY


It's that time of the month again.  Halfway through and a date with a Gifted Gorgeousness post.

I'm sure you all know about GG, but if not you can hop over to Jo's blog and find out more. Basically you post a pic of anything that you have been gifted or have gifted yourself to others.

My socks using the Madeleintosh wool Ann sent as a gift are completed

 
 
A card kit (sent by Justine) stitched in June for the sale table
 
 
A new start, its to be a gift.
Lizzie Kate's 'Promise Me' - the chart was a gift from Clare
 
One of my friends at the local community centre is a whizz with her sewing machine and always trying out new things.  Last week she arrived, drew this out of her Mary Poppins bag and said "Can you make use of this?" 

 
A lovely little bag ...
 
with a drawstring top and flat cardboard covered bottom insert.....
 
in the most delightful fabric. 
 
It's now being used as my latest sock knitting bag.
 
Crafting people are the nicest and kindest people you will meet.
 
What's in your GG post for July, time to hop over to you and find out.
 
Love and blessings
 
Julie

      My friend shops at www.fabricguild.co.uk .... I think it probably came from there.

    What a great new knitting bag and I'm impressed at how fast you sewed it up. I can't wait to wear my knitted socks, they are not as lovely as the ones you just knitted though.

    The socks look perfect, of course! And the little stitched card is cute. Love the tiny kitty on it.
