Crochet peach pattern

I wanted to make peach coasters with mint leaves to memorialize a certain procedure happening in Washington DC.  I couldn't find a flat peach pattern, so I started with an apple and worked on altering it to look more like a peach and less like a red delicious shape!  After four or five versions I got one I was happy with, but I realized I had totally re-written the pattern.  So here is my peach to crochet.  For the leaf there are many patterns, I used  Veined Leaf pattern  and skipped the stem. Peach Worsted weight yarn (I used Lily Sugar n'Cream cotton) Size H hook Abbreviations used:   ch = chain sl = slip stitch sc = single crochet hdc = half double crochet dc = double crochet All US terminology.   Start with magic circle, or chain 3 and join with slip stitch Work round one in circle. Ch 3 (counts as first dc), dc 11 in circle for a total of 12 stitches.  Join with slip stitch at top of chain 3. Round two, ch 3, dc in first dc
