Can't stay focused on shit ....but still stitchin!!!



I can't stay focused and my daughter comes over and tells me that she went to Chrissy's and noticed that there is only one sampler and where are the other two? Well.....how was I to know she was going to spit them out in rapid order??? So this one is a golden oldie. I am ashamed that this piece is not done yet but what can I say? I'm working on it now. Below is my progress I am going to try to get it done before her birthday.....in august.
