Finally finished Chocolate.

*sighs* I haven't had time to stitch much in the last two weeks. I could only squeeze in a half hour or an hour at a time on anything. I finally made time to finish this piece last night:



Don't worry about that blackish smudge on the bottom- it was chocolate. I didn't realize I had chocolate on my hand when I took the picture! It washed out fine.

This one was so frustrating! I had to frog sereral rows after mis-counting on the border. It took about a half an hour to fix, and then I just didn't want to work on it for a while. It took me about 20 hours to complete, including the frogging.

Next up is the Baseball blocks- this one should be much easier! It's more like the shoe blocks.

My mom picked up this kit for me when she went to Mount Vernon (George Washington's family estate) last week:



I couldn't go on the tour because I was sick, so it was nice of Mom to get this for me! I'll end up giving it to her once I've stitched it. ;) But it will have to wait- after Baseball and continued work on Fairy Roses, I have to work on Letters from Nora: N, and the Ice Cold Beer piece.
