My grandmother said our ancestors were followers of William of Orange, so our Irish color was orange. On St. Patrick's day I always wear orange.
I never knew there were other St. Patrick's day colors! It's fun to know old traditions! I haven't even had time to start yet. Though I'm pretty sure I know what I'll be making. I'm trying to finish up two quilts for a friend to gift her step children on Valentine's Day. I got the sons finished today. The daughters is pinned ready to fm. It should be done in a day or so then I'll get busy with your mini. (And now I know your 'orange' tradition...maybe it needs a spot of orange?)

Orange is not really a St. Patrick's Day color. Not all Ireland is Catholic. That is what all the mess was about, the bombings and killing. The Protestants, called the Orangemen who followed the English king William, against the Irish Catholics who wanted the English out of Ireland. That's why the Irish flag is green, white and orange.

Busy sewing maybe TL :) or snowed in. Nice in Wyoming the last couple of days... no snow, kind of weird. I finished mine tonight and will be mailing tomorrow.

Jaba you sound like you have it all together. I wish I was more on the ball. :eek:

Don't know about that JuneBillie, like everyone else "just trying to stay afloat". If you find that pot of gold, let me know okay? I'll do the same, been looking for it for a very long time.
