It's Gifted Gorgeousness Day SAL, the day when we show something we have recieved, made as or made from a gift. As explained much better on
Jo's Blog. Here is my September offerering.
A little Happy Sushi purse, all ready for Naomi to take off to Uni.
And a crochet blanket... NOT all ready to take off to Uni
Oh well, maybe it'll be finished by Christmas.
Just for fun I thought I'd share September's page from my kitchen calendar. It features vintage advertising images, and while some of them are lovely, others have not stood the test of time as well and are frankly quite bizarre. Like this one, which clearly illustrates a psychopathic older sister, force feeding her little brother a delicious bowl of Cornflakes and Strychnine.

That Sushi purse is adorable. Love the colors in the almost completed blanket.
Haha…calendar picture is funny! I love vintage.
I've just joined the sal...better late then never! The purse is gorgeous..so clever xxx And yes, that def looks like an older sister. I know..I have four younger brothers haha.
Yikes, I am an older sister...ha, ha! Love the blanket, come on surely before Christmas? Bonfire Night?
Pretty gifties
Your sushi purse is so cute!! Love the colorful blanket:)
That's a funny interpretation of the image. I never had an elder sister, real or cousin.
mmm that definitely is a weird pic for a calendar, I think I might have to tape another over the top of it, not sure I could look at it all month!
Fabulous purse, you blanket is looking bright and colourful too.
I love the purse, That crochet rug will grow so quickly, you'll have it finished in no time! Have fun!
Thanks for taking part in GG this month. Love the little purse.
The girl in the calendar is definitely up to something! Do you follow "It's like they know us" on FB? Sarcastic comments about stock advertising photos? Very much your sense of humour I think!
What a gorgeous purse! Love the gorgeous colours in your blanket.
Another big sister here...There are days when I would definitely have looked at my little brother like this. Don't remember ever force feeding him though.! Great if a bit scary photo.
you are just so talented Christine, love the purse and the blanket to be. Hope all is well with you ,sorry not been in touch lately .
Cute little sushi purse and best wishes finishing the coverlet.
I find excellent knitting or crocheting time is when I have to wait at the health club for Roger to come out.
The sushi purse is just too cute!! Your blanket is lovely, the colors are so fun! I understand how long it takes to make a blanket, hang in there!! The vintage ad made me laugh...sometimes you wonder what they were thinking!
Super cute purse and fab colours on the blanket. The picture is slightly sinister isn't it!
Ha ha!! Love that description of the breakfast photo :)
Your purse for Naomi is adorable! I wish her much success at University :)
