Gifted Gorgeousness Post....

... two offerings for GG this month, both of them Happy Dances - yay!

First off, I finished American Baby (just need to get it framed).



Then, over the weekend, I finished "S" for Sampler from A Stitcher's Alphabet, a Freebie from Brookes Books, as a birthday gift for a friend and colleague at work. I hope she likes it (I also baked her a cake).





I chose my own colours and it is stitched on 28 count linen.

Off to work early today, I will try to catch up on a bit of blog reading, as soon as I can.

Thanks for taking part in GG this month. Lovely birth sampler which will look great on her wall as she grows up.
It will be quite a while before I get to the S in the Stitcher's Alphabet!

You have a good eye for color -- love how that little piece for your friend came out. The American Baby sampler came out beautifully too.
