So, for the first time ever, I actually kept a notebook diary of my stitching time and progress with what I stitched and number of hours at each sitting, mainly because I knew my aunt would ask me how long it took.... So, in total I spent 30.5 hours on this. I'm not exactly a speedy stitcher, so, I'm guessing that is a lot more time than other people would take considering it's only 6"x6.5" and nothing is filled in other than the lovely textured Rice Stitch trees.
Something else I noticed was that my average sitting is about 3 hours. I know I tend to get restless so, this must be when I decide its time to do something different. Anyone else ever make note of stuff like this or am I just way too analytical lol?

That looks lovely, Karen! I really like the different stitches used.
I've never actually counted how long it takes me on a project either. I'm sure I'm slower than many other stitchers.
Congratulations on another pretty finish! I don't count my hours either but I know I'm not as fast as some people. I don't really care, since I get things done eventually ;)
Great finish. I have never kept a count of time - only dates - but you sound fast to me!
What a lovely finish Karen. Like the other Margaret I only keep track of the days from start to finish. Are you going to count all your time from now on?
Beautiful finish Karen! I really like this one.
My average sitting time is only about 1 hr or so. I have to get up after that. I may go back to the stitching within a short time but I can't sit for too long.
What a lovely finish. I also have this in my stash to stitch up one day.
