April Gifted Gorgeousness

Yesterday was the 15th. So that means it was time for a Gifted Gorgeousness update. I took the day to stitch and do laundry so I stayed offline. Anyway here I am today. The idea of this fun blog SAL is to share things we are stitching as a gift for someone or have received as a gift.

Stop over to Jo's check in post here to see what others have shared this time around.

Let's look back since the last post to see what I can share with you...

I am stitching on Ink Circles 99 Bottles of Beer piece for my husband. I want to finish it this year so I'm stitching 4 bottles a month so I can finish it off before Christmas I hope. In this span I have added 4 bottles for the March requirement...
 
My little rabbit piece you've seen several times now is also for an exchange so I think that would be considered a gift. Just not yet. We are waiting to finish the exchange when no one has to worry about the mail having problems. I know I have orders from Amazon that are sure taking their sweet time getting here.

That's all I have to share. Not a very gifty time right now.

Today was the first release for the Colorful Critters SAL from Stitchonomy. Look at this adorable moth...
He's a Garden Tiger Moth. He will be first on the new SAL. I think I will finish the April fairy though first. The new animals come out every 2 days. I can't wait to see what animals she has picked for us.

Here in Northern Indiana we went from 70's one day last week to a snow storm coming tomorrow. We are forecast 3 to 5 inches. Just crazy. I think we are just staying home this weekend. So hopefully that means lots of stitching time. I hope everyone has a great weekend.

You're doing great in keeping up with your four bottles a month! Keep it up and you'll definitely have it done in time for Christmas! I'm glad to hear you're getting some stitching done now!

Your bottles are coming along great. Just look at all those colors! That moth is going to work up so pretty. I know I signed up for the SAL, and I'll have to go back and check it out.
Love ya' my friend!

Beer bottles are growing well, what a gorgeous creature although I'm happier looking at a photo than being with it for real, stay safe x

I love watching your collection of beer bottles grow! What a colourful moth

THanks for taking part in GG this month. Nice progress on the 99 Bottles, you are doing well staying on track!
I really like the first moth, I am waiting to see what some of the rest are like before I commit. But I am enjoying all the variations.

I think the bottles looks great! I love the Moth too, he is colorful and will be fun. Not sure when I will do mine but it is on the long list along with the plants! What crudy weather you guys are having. I hope spring comes your way soon!

Just the right amount, no hangovers!
We were teased of snow, but it just got cold and wet. Now the weather is beautiful and I'm loving. it.
