Needlework Shop Restart

I started over on 32 ct. Lambswool Jobelan to match "The Tea Shop," which I stitched last year. I frogged the border about ten times on my restart. I should have took my friend Debby's advice and put it away until today. But I'm stubborn. Anyway, here's my progress next to my "Tea Room."

Needlework Shop restart

I'm going to Florida tomorrow. I should have internet (hopefully), so I'll update again down there!

    Well, now that I see them together, I agree, this will be a nice choice. Sorry about the frogging!

    I love your Tea Room, Nicole. I have the chart for this one and am looking forward to stitching it some day.

    Interesting about the fabric for Needlework Shop. If it's the same as I'm using for Ballerinas, I love it! Of course it's Winter here, so no chance of sticky hands, and I do use a hoop when stitching. The other choice you've made looks just as nice. Shame about the second start though - and that frogging's a pain isn't it? Keep at it. Looking forward to the progress pics:)

    Sorry you had to frog!

    New fabric choice is lovely especially as it matches The Tea Shop.

    Have a great trip to Florida

    You are a truly dedicated stitcher! I believe it will be worth it in the end though; they look so pretty together.
