May 31, 2022: For the most part, I’ve been surprised at how fast this has went. I could have finished in 3 days, if not for spending hours re-doing the ice cubes in different colors and hating them all. Basically it is done,with the remaining part being the ice cubes and the lemonaide line around the inside of the pitcher and glass. OH YES< and the stain did come out with the oxi-clean boil method of dunking just that part and rinsing well, when done.

June 2, 2022 So… in the early am hours between 3-6, I decided that the ice cubes weren’t ever going to look right, and removed most of them from the pitcher. I replaced them with lemon slices. I tried another color for the 3 ice cubes I left of 2 strands lighter gray, with 1 strand of the dark like the ice cubes in the glass. I have no idea if I will remove them and replace with more lemons, or not. I also have 2 versions of the outlining of lemonaide that goes around the inside of the pitcher and the glass. One is stem stitch and the other is back stitch. I don’t know which I prefer, so will leave it to look at for awhile and see if I ever decide. Basically, it’s done, but the only thing would be deciding which stitches I like best and taking out the other stitches and replacing them with the preferred ones.
