December Stitchy Gifts 🎁

What a truly lovely surprise to receive this darling pin pillow from dear Stasi @Bee-mused and Bee-Stitching! It's always a treat to be gifted something unexpected AND, of course, handmade.
So thanks again so very much, Stasi, this will always have a place on my craft table. 🥰


Karen gave me these goodies for Christmas, including a gift certificate to The Stitching Post. There were delicious cookies she made too, but they're gone now! And the box is cute, I'm sure I can find something stitching related to put in it.


Nathan didn't know what to get me for Christmas, so I showed him my 123Stitch wishlist to pick something from. Sweet, he picked three!


My Salvaged Stitch friend, Deanna, had these in a box of goodies someone gave her. She thought of me, so I got them!
I think the only ones I'll be likely to stitch are the bears and maybe the sewing one. Does anyone have any interest in the others?


So December was a great stitchy month, the next post will be about some adventures!

    Happy New Year Astrid: Stasi is an amazing stitcher and chooses the perfect designs to give as gifts.
    Lovely gifts from Karen.
    The ribband can be used to make small ornaments with the words like Peace Merry Christmas and other Christmas words, I have done this in the past.
    nice gifts from Nathan.
