WTG! It's turning out to be such a pretty piece. I wasn't too fond of it when I first saw it. I hope you don't change my mind too much because I bought Autumn in HRH ;o) Are you using silks or DMC or did I already ask you this?<br /><br />Great pictures! I love going to zoos but it's nice to see that they animals have space to live in, at least a lot more than they used to.Pumpkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10310433488261347972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293399242092873784.post-7562875860430693702010-04-09T13:25:25.821-04:002010-04-09T13:25:25.821-04:00Hi Carol,

I am starting with your most recent post and then playing catch up today. :) Congrats on your Block 3 finish. It looks fabulous. I do not like pears or green vegetables either. The grainy texture of pears turns me off to them. Food texture is a big thing for me, not so much taste. <br /><br />Have you started Block 4 yet? I have started it but I have not made it very far. Too many snowflakes! I need to get busy though and try to get it finished before April's end. <br /><br />I love the zoo photos. I think it is neat that your son is volunteering there. That sounds like so much fun. :)Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02935111380330769183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293399242092873784.post-74610558266273917712010-04-07T04:01:49.255-04:002010-04-07T04:01:49.255-04:00Congratulations on finishing Block 3.
