Come visit with me as I stitch and craft my way from one Christmas to the next - I like to have Christmas projects close by me all year. I have a particular fondness for Santas and Angels. If you have the time, leave a comment so I know you've visited.

Gifted Gorgeousness, September

  Another month gone - this year is disappearing fast. The 15th of each month is the day on which we can report our 'gifted' stitching - those items destined to be gifts, or stitched using gifted supplies.  

This month I once again have just one project to talk about. I have made good progress on Christmas Dreams, which I am stitching for myself using gifted chart, fabric and most of the floss. This time last month I had stitched 28 pages, today I am stitching on my 34th page. I still have a bit under a quarter of the 34th page to stitch, but I expect to finish the page tomorrow, as it's all plain stitching in just one floss colour (black). I have passed the half-way point now. I am keen to have Christmas Dreams framed and on my wall for Christmas 2021. However my immediate goal is to finish row 6 of charts by the end of September.

Thanks for taking part in GG this month. Your Christmas piece is looking amazing! Being able to focus on a larger piece is definitely the recipe for success.

Wow.... I think I'm doing well if I work on something with 4 pages!! Looks really gorgeous, lovely rich colours in this.

You got in lots of stitching since last month. Santa looks great and I do hope your dream of having him finished for the holiday comes true!

You've managed a lot of stitching on this. A framed finsish for Christmas 2021 looks very doable.

Almost six pages in one month is amazing progress! It's a beautiful project so I hope it is finished by Christmas 2021.

Wow! That's great progress for just one month and shows what can be achieved when you really focus on a single project. Passing the halfway mark must have been cause for a quiet celebration. :)
