My dear father reminded me that I hadn’t posted lately. Mostly because I haven’t been home, work has been busy, and my volunteer work has increased, so the time I am home, I try and sleep.

However, on Saturday, I took time to sit down, watch trashy TV (on Netflix) and finish “Chicken Soup with Rice.” It’s finished in the sense that I have finished embroidering. It is hooped, but not finished, but will be. This absolutely is my favorite piece I’ve done.

Mr. Lulu found the thread for the leaves, which was a fun multi-colored strand. Stitching this piece brought me a LOT of happiness. It’s my first real character piece. I hope you love it as much as I do.
