October Gifted Gorgeousness and WIPocalypse Update

It's time for a Gifted Gorgeousness Update and since the full moon is nigh, it's also time for another WIPocalypse update.  Gifted Gorgeousness projects are projects that were made to be given as a gift -or- in some way or part received as a gift.  WIPocalypse projects are all of the projects that I have in progress and hope to have completed before the end of the world.

 I had a finish this month!  Hooray!  I put the final stitches into "Quaker 2011" (shown above), a freebie by Gazette94.

I made some progress on my Rambling Rose miniature sampler.  I have to use magnifying glasses and a magnifying lens to work on this one, so I only do a little bit at a time to keep from going cross-eyed! lol!

I stitched on my "Too Much Honey Sampler", which was gifted to me by a non-stitchy friend.  I really made some progress on this one.  I finished Tigger and Pooh!  Next comes Piglet.  Stay tuned!


 Here is where I left off last time:


My "Simple Blessings" sampler by Sandy Orton is coming along nicely:


And last but not least ... I put some stitches into "Halloween Pumpkin" from the Just CrossStitch 2012 Halloween Issue.  I have almost finished the Jack O'Lantern and soon you will see a witches hat, a black cat, and a colony of bats start to appear.

That's all I have for this update.  

I am participating in Jo's Halloween Blog Hop again this year, so be prepared for some spooky goodness!

Happy stitching!

  1. Thanks for taking part in GG this month. I love that Quaker, the colours you chose are perfect. The miniature stitching is beautiful too, quite different to the Winnie the Pooh, they make a good contrast!

  7. Congrats on your finish! I'm jealous about the progress you've made on "Too Much Honey". I'm nowhere near that far along...

  10. You have so many pretty projects in progress. Quaker 2011 is gorgeous. I love the blue and yellow combo. The fabric that you are using for Halloween Pumpkin is perfect.
