Sugar-Free Chocolates for Mother's Day

I'm collecting the photos for my wedding dress construction post, but in the meantime here's something I made for my Mom this past Mother's Day.

Chocolates

The pattern is here at Coats and Clark. I made some modifications... The chocolates ended up bigger than they looked in the pattern, so I just picked my favorites and didn't make as many. I started making the box part, and realized that I already had a fabric-covered heart box that would be perfect. So I put the large heart that I had already made inside as a doily. I like how the lace came out. I also used a deeper red, which I liked better. It was lots of fun to make :)
