Good idea to mix in the other green!Donahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18147511848442215020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3686802198497889009.post-55335647536603201132011-05-11T14:50:35.214-05:002011-05-11T14:50:35.214-05:00Elizabeth is looking beautiful!

I especially love the center wreath with the little birds. I change threads all the time if I feel that the recommended ones are not working for me. <br /><br />As for choosing gardening or stitching, I choose stitching every time, although I do plant annuals around my trees and side gardens every year. Just love the added cheeriness that they provide.Kathy Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10098056934345001536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3686802198497889009.post-23120237785820347442011-05-10T20:45:47.756-05:002011-05-10T20:45:47.756-05:00I love your Elizabeth -- she's gorgeous!

I think the green you chose is lovely.<br /><br />You're right about the photo of the chart - I think it was the original piece, then they chose different fibers because they certainly look very different. Some day I will restart mine with different fibers.<br /><br />I am very happy that this is working out so well for you now!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17073567534248514127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3686802198497889009.post-20812555410461867602011-05-10T08:50:31.853-05:002011-05-10T08:50:31.853-05:00Your Elizabeth looks so pretty.

I'm glad you found a solution to the wimpy green dilemma.<br />We've had such cold, wet weather that I'm really looking forward to working out in the garden this morning. I haven't gotten to do much in the garden this season... so some weeding and trimming is in order.Laurie in Iowahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05095841340075509748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3686802198497889009.post-24293760002378765682011-05-10T08:48:14.822-05:002011-05-10T08:48:14.822-05:00The birdies do look a little pasty.
