Jan Gifted Gorgeousness / 2 Giveaways

In the blog world I'm pretty sure you have heard about the wonderful Jo. She runs this awesome blog which if you haven't checked out you definitely need to. On the 15th of each month she does this fun check in for a SAL called Gifted Gorgeousness. The idea is to share things we are stitching that is either gifts for others or we have received as gifts in one way or another. It's beautiful to see how caring other stitchers are and how lucky we are to receive so many wonderful stitching gifts not only from online friends who we might have never met, friends we've had for years, but also from our families. My family are huge supporters of my addiction hobby.

In this span I've worked on a gift my hubby got me for Christmas...
I love the saying and meaning behind this one. It's very special that hubby thought to get this one for me. Here is my progress on it after 4 days so far...
Now that I shared that with you. I would like to add to the chance of my readers to have something to share for the next Gifted Gorgeousness update. I'm hosting two giveaways.

In order to win please make sure I have a way to contact you. I've noticed quite a few no reply bloggers and I need to have a way to get your contact information to mail the patterns to you. Also please make sure to let me know which batch of patterns you are interested in. If you are interested in both that's fine too. I will have Jeremiah pick a name from the lists of people who enter. I will announce the winner Monday the 22nd of Jan.

The first batch is two Post Stitches Patterns from Sue Hillis Designs...
Both patterns have a charm included too.

The 2nd batch is two Janylnn kits from the Cars movie...
These are never opened complete kits.

I hope someone will enjoy these pieces. I will have a lot more giveaways this year. I have a tote full of things I no longer plan to stitch why not spread them to people who will appreciate them.

I love the kit from your husband, what a special gift. You're stitching it up quickly too! I'll pass on your giveaway as I have so much I want to stitch already, but the daisy one really made me laugh!

Sounds like you found a great husband there Katie!

Renee said...

Katie, your progress in 4 days is fantastic! Please exclude me from your giveaway, as I have too many projects on the go and would love for someone else to receive these sweet kits. I really, really wish I'd stopped to take a photo last month. There was an auto shop along Hwy 99 near Oregon City that had an old red truck all dressed up for the holidays as Tow Mater. It was awesome. :) Happy Stitching!
