July Gifted Gorgeousness

and only a couple of days late as well.
Gifted gorgeousness is a SAL organised by Jo at Serendipitous Stitching, where once a month we show off gift related stitchy stuff. I'ts been a busy week here with the village carnival, a week long event culminating in the carnival itself tomorrow, (pictures to follow) and four weddings in eight days so crafty type things have been on the back burner a bit. I did make up these three little coin purses, and the Strawberry Shortcake fabric was a gift from Shroo so that counts right?


Also I received a lovely gift through the post from Mary Anne, of all these fabulous pieces of old lace. I shall have to think of something extra special to use them for, maybe combine them with some of my denim squares in some way...

It definitely counts! I LOVE the Bazinga purse - so cute and funny! Beautiful laces, I'm sure you will find something to do with them.

Thanks for taking part in GG this month, of course the gifted fabric counts!
Glad you are keeping busy and enjoying the summer too.

Did I read right? Four weddings in eight days? Wow! Impressive social life - lol!

Carol said...

Wow! That is a lot of weddings!! My sister's is coming up this weekend--can't wait :) Love your little purses, Christine, and I know you'll come up with some very creative uses for that pretty lace!

So many weddings! I'd be out of socializing for a few years if that all happened in a week haha!

I had a hard time picking a favorite purse, probably that little deer one wins this round with Strawberry Shortcake a super close 2nd! Those clasps are great on all of them.

Wonderful purses Christine, I have one of those clasps in my stash somewhere, must dig it out and give one of them a go myself.
Hope you all enjoyed the carnival and had some fun times in with the busyness of work.
