Just today an upstairs guest bedroom was painted what I call a beige with pink tint...my children say, "It's pink Mama."<br /><br />We share some of the same interests. I am a past shepherdess that has spun and dyed her own wool. Now I live in the city, but those ten years were marvelous.<br /><br />And Jane Eyre, that novel is on the top of my booklist.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09710910366858293660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-87359681938254883372011-02-19T08:19:21.179-05:002011-02-19T08:19:21.179-05:00Dear Ladies,

Pink rooms, pink fabric, pink flowers sound so pretty. Any pink, really, is the "right pink" if it is what you like. <br />You've read between the lines of this post, too, I see. My hints on how pink sits with you touches on the subject of femininity. I'll confide in you. I'd like to feel more at home wearing pink because it is so pretty.<br />Karen A.Karen Andreolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12135239838790568639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-50452545746003598102011-02-07T16:56:59.057-05:002011-02-07T16:56:59.057-05:00I also discovered your blog via the CBD catalog, a...I also discovered your blog via the CBD catalog, and what a pleasure it was!

Can't help it, keep on collecting fabric. Making baby-quilts is so nice. In the last 2 years, working on the pediatric SCT ward, 8 of our nurses had babies. They all got their own baby quilt, in the colors of the nursery. It was a fun project!<br />Love from Holland,<br />Anne-MarieAnne-Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06233398047953030839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-10738849879610121142011-01-21T22:10:12.057-05:002011-01-21T22:10:12.057-05:00Congratulations on another grandson!Congratulations on another grandson!Beth West www.northernskyart.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07981722303332883948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-21887508981917964892011-01-19T15:38:55.117-05:002011-01-19T15:38:55.117-05:00Dear Karen,

After some re-arranging of rooms, our three-year-old little girl is finally going to have a bedroom, and I've known all along I would paint it pink. (It's her favorite color, too.) I'm also picky about the shade of pink and am wanting to go with a "rosey" sort of color. The description of the type of person who likes pink, definitely fits me too!<br /><br />Congratulations on your new grandbaby!<br /><br />AutumnAutumnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-82263234354529269062011-01-16T02:35:10.325-05:002011-01-16T02:35:10.325-05:00Karen, I recently found your blog and LOVE all the...Karen, I recently found your blog and LOVE all the books I have that you have written!

I thought i...Karen, when I was young, I hated pink. I thought it was too prissy and girly and somehow conveyed feminine weakness. Perhaps this is because I was raised by a feminist mother, and given a T-shirt that said "Anything boys can do, girls can do better?" As I was growing up I felt that femininity was something to be shunned, something to rise above. I strove to attain masculine strength, and not surprisingly, I liked masculine clothes, and the colour blue. <br /><br />Now, at age 32 and with my fourth baby (a girl) on the way, I find to my surprise, that I love the colour pink. For the past few years, I have been coming to terms with my womanhood and learning to embrace it instead of be ashamed of it as feminism taught me. I am planning on making a quilt for my new baby girl (due in April) and I find that I am ridiculously excited about choosing out all the different shades of pink fabric. How could I not have noticed before how pretty pink can be?<br /><br />Regarding the gender of babies--my midwife told me that she was positive this baby was a boy from the sound of his heart beat, but the ultrasound showed very clearly that it was definitely a girl. I don't think the heart beat method is very accurate!Laura Jeannehttp://gettingthere.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-26961211977629569992011-01-15T20:47:32.299-05:002011-01-15T20:47:32.299-05:00Another Grandson!
