Re: Need an Opnion
Maryq - your father may not have told you the whole story then... LOL! If his name was Hanson it must have come from a Swede... A true Norweigan would spell it Hansen, with an e rather than an o. So I'm thinking there must really have been Swede somewhere there in the background... and, maybe you are really a Swede without knowing it!!! That would certianly explain your love for the blue and yellow colors!

Actually.... in truth... in the old country my name would have been Holtan, since the last name was from the farm where they lived. When they emmigrated to USA, they changed it to the traditional Hanson-being "son of Hans" OR in true Norwegian tradition I would have been Mary "Thomasdautter" being daughter of Thomas! I have about 3 boxes full of my Dad's geneoligical research! He was a nut for geneology and compiled quite a lot of info on the ancestors from Norway and his French side in Quebec!

That sounds great to me.. I'm beginning a Pink Lemonade too. I'm using a cream and dark peach batik for the chevrons, a shell fabric for the blocks, cream and light peach batik for the 4 patches. It's going to be gorgeous.

Ohhhh, love your fabrics! And you will really enjoy making the Pink Lemonade pattern, it is so much fun! I love nothing more than making Flying Geese with the QIAD rulers.
