  36. My favorite color has always been orange. I can't give a definitive answer why it is my favorite color--it just is. My mother said it is because being the 4th of 5 children, it was the only color left in the box when the others had taken all of theirs. That's a good a reason as any I suppose!

    ReplyDelete
  37. my favorite color is red! In all shades! I just love red!
    And your bag pattern is sooooo nice! I made several for x-mas and people loved it! Please keep on such a great work!
