Gifted Gorgeousness is the brain child of Jo the idea is that we use those things in our stash that have been gifted to us over the years so they actually get to see the light of day and receive some love, it might be a chart, a skein of thread, a piece of fabric or even some of the trimmings.
This year I decided that I'd try and keep up with the monthly challenge over on Needlecraft Heaven
January's challenge was this freebie although it has 2016 on it was easy enough to change to 2017.
I used a couple of Needle Necessities from my stash and a piece of silver lurex linda (that's not made any more sadly) the purple is in the backgound is my backing fabric.
How does it qualify for GG I hear you ask, well first off it's a freebie so a gift from the designer and second I sent it to Teejay who loves penguins as a surprise gift and he was as excited to get some post as he was to get the ornament :) lastly my fella gifted me with a scrap pack of fabric and I used a piece of it for the back of the ornament

Great work Lindsay, nicely gifted too :)
Very nice! I stitched mine right at the start of the year but have yet to finish finish it. It's been fun seeing how everyone used different colours and finished them differently.
He's lovely Lindsay
