Hello you wonderful stitchy person! π♀️
Today I’m joining Jo at Serendipitous Stitching for Gifted Gorgeousness which is where we show items we’ve received or given as gifts.
This month I’ve been cross stitching and have actually had a couple of finishes!
The first was a free pattern from Melisa’s blog - Pinker ‘n Punkin Quilting & Stitching and you can look for the pattern under the name “Bees”, strangely enoughπ
 |
| And this was a free pattern from Ann Woods blog - an Imperial Cat and has now been gifted |
And then I’ve finally fully finished a birthday card for my mum’s 90th birthday!
Happy Birthday mum! Yay!
Can you tell I was really pleased to finally FFO! And at the very last minute I decided it needed a couple of rows of crosses top and bottom ……… just to really finish it off! π I found these patterns in World of Cross stitching …… I think! Just a shame mum can’t actually see this now as she has completely lost her sight! π So sorry I took so long to finish it mumπππ xx ππ€
.
Well, I’m off to visit other Gifted Gorgeousness participants now!
And this is the project I’m currently working on,, once again it’s a free pattern
from Melisa. - Thanks so much Melisa!
I hope to finish it for Jo’s next SAL - Halloween
Are you playing along? Well even if you’re not don’t forget to visit here and Jo’s blog - Serendipidous Stitching
on 31 October! ππππ♀️
See you all again soon (Blogger permitting ……. Grrrr)
Hugs,

Imperial Cat is so fun and adorable, thank-you for the link to the design.
Happy Sweet 90th to your Mother, what a milestone for your family, you have longevity on your side.
The card is so sweet, I have never stitched a card before, something to think about.
Oh my gosh that chicken on the pumpkin is adorable, I am looking forward to seeing your progress.
It's nice to see a post from you.

Great finishes Barbara - and Happy Birthday Mum! xx
Beautiful finishes and lucky recipients! Have a good week! Hugs Christine xx
Such a great cat, so different from usual patterns! The card is very nice, I love those tiny gifts : elegance is in the simplicity! xxx
Happy Birthday to your Mom! Sorry about her sight but she can probably run her hands over the card and feel the stitching. Love all your FFOs you have been very busy.
That''s a beautiful card you made for your mother. I guess she is a knitter?
Cute wee gifties! Sending happiest of special Birth Day wishes to your wonderful Mom.
Haappy Birthday to your Mum, she may not be able to see the card but it will have a lovely texture.

Thanks for taking part in GG this month and welcome back to blogging too!
Your Mum’s card is great, maybe she can feel the stitching like braille?
I love Melissa’s cute freebies especially her latest with the chickens, cats and pumpkins!
Lovely embroideries. Happy belated birthday wishes to mum xx
What a "bee"autiful finish, and a fun fat cat!
Awe, a Happy Belated Birthday to your sweet Mum, I hope she had a wonderful, special celebration.
All of your pieces are so gorgeous, Barbara. I love your finish for BEES and the cat is amazing. Thank you so much for the link and for the sweetest shout out. Hugs.
