In May our 2 daughters and I went to Norway to visit the country, see where my family came from and visit relatives. We happened to walk by a fabric store in Oslo and, of course, walked in. I found some cute fabric but when I looked at the bolt, it was made in the US so I left it. I did buy a piece of blue and red heavy Norwegian wool that I brought home for my husband to be used as a large throw. I haven't put a binding on it yet. They had the same quilting tools and gadgets but the markings were Metric and the instructions were in Norwegian.
