Jo over at Serendipitous Stitching hosts the Gifted Gorgeousness SAL where we post pictures of stitching things that were gifted to us or are gifts for others.
This piece is one I started last month but haven't taken the time to post. It will be a gift for my husband's aunt. She is a Quaker and I had the plan to make her The Quaker Ball by Denise Harrington Pratt.
A friend has stitched the smallest one and I really want to try it.
BUT....this aunt is getting older and I am a slow stitcher. So I decided to grab a piece of fabric and the pattern and make something else.
The plan is to put the finished stitching on a box. Hopefully I can spend a bit of time on it soon. It is a lot of fun. The thread is a Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe thread called Continental Blue.

Great stitching, that is a lovely shade of blue
I love those balls, but your single motifs will look gorgeous as well :)
Love your new start Beth.

Thanks for taking part in GG this month. The Quaker design will look lovely in a box. Maybe you can stitch the ball for yourself afterwards?
The Quaker balls look amazing, hope we'll see your progress on it soon after you finish your aunt gift. xxx
That's a lot of stitching, they look so cool!
The colour is lovely and it will look great on a box.
