Sweet & Innocent?

Wouldn't you just LOVE to have this sweet
little boy bring you a Christmas present?
Last year while delivering our neighbor gifts,
Sam and the girls went up to a door, handed the gift,
and our "Sweet" little boy told them,
"Merry Christmas you Filthy Animal!"
Jeff and I both tried to stifle our laughter,
while telling Sam that he did not say a nice thing.
If you know Sam, you know that it doesn't sink in!
He loves the laughs!

Enjoy the original:

Hana Brady
I was born on May 16,1931, in a town called Nove Mesto. I am a Jew, so when Hittler came to town it was bad news for me and my family.
When I was only ten years old both of my parents,were taken away by the Nazi soldiers. Later my brother and I went to live with my uncle and aunt. Then a letter came to my uncle's house and it said that my brother and I were to go to the train station the next morning. My brother and I were sent to a warehouse along with some other Jews.
After two horrible years in the warehouse my brotherGorge and I were on another train where we were sent to a camp called Theristandt. There other girls and I were taught things secretly. We would do our secret classes after we did our chores.
Later I was sent to a concentration camp and sent to a gas chamber and was killed at the age of thirteen.
I died October 23,1944.


Hannah did an excellent job on her Wax Museum project!

Have you ever wanted to strangle someone?

I have!!!!
This week I have been working on this little number:

(The Dog Bed.....not the dog)


Anyhoo............it has been the biggest joke!
Whoever wrote and develop the pattern surely never actually made a prototype from the pattern. It is the biggest PiEcE!!!

I have never been so frustrated and angry with a sewing project!

Hopefully, my darling little fluff ball won't destroy it too soon...................
cause I'm never making another one!
