 I chose the bonus block for my Block 3.   The tulips look great.

TABLET COVER

My Son wanted me to make him a cover for his new tablet.  I took the measurements 

                            So I  chose Black and red material.

                           It  fits so happy.

                      The front,     Closed up.

                                   The back.

 

 The green one I had made before.

  Here they are all  closed and protected.

BEN FRANKLIN BLOCK 26

 The Footstool Block. click and see how I fussy cut the Liberty and  Freedom

During the later years of Ben's life good living and good eating caught up with him
he suffered terribly from gout and had to rest his ankles and legs. He would be carried
to and from the business that kept him busy.

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

This is  another book by Walter Lord with the same title A Night to Remember but
it tells how the survivors  got  in the life boats and the names of the people and the
ones who swam and were picked up and got in the life boats. Also how the Carpathia
ship didn't believe the Titanic need help. How they went full steam to get to them but
were too late the Titanic had sunk with just life boats and people swimming in the
cold water. It took 4 hours to collect them. All the band members were lost because
they played till it sank. The book has many actual pictures of the passengers.
 A GREAT BOOK>

DECEMBER

December is here. Wish  you all a great Holiday.I had a great Thanksgiving with all the family home.Now to get back to  sewing my BOM and UFO. I just  washed the car it is 39  degrees and the sun is shinning like SPRING ,

A GREAT BOOK

 Walter Lord interviewed 60  survivors  from the Titanic. He tells all about how no body believed the ship would sink. The water was terrible cold and many swam till they were lifted in to life boats.Some of the people were very rich one lady left over $11,000.00 worth of jewelry on the ship. One man $200,000.00 in stocks and $400,000.00 in bonds. The ship that finally got their signal did not believe they needed help.THIS IS A GREAT BOOK if you are interested in the TITANIC.. This has the list of passengers. Real names of the persons and their experience of what they lived through. I also read THE GIRL WHO CAME HOME  the names were changed in that book Hazel Gaynor wrote the book it is great too how a lady never told her story till her Great Grand daughter wanted to write about it for college credit.
