don in brooklin on Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 I finally finished the bank for my grandsons. The pattern was by Birchbank and then slightly modified. For those who didn't see the original post, my Grandsons are saving to buy a goat with Feed the Children's Fund. ​Part of their allowance and part of any gifts get saved and then next Christmas they will donate the money for a goat. Papa is on the hook to match their donation. http://www.canadianfeedthechildren.ca/buy-a-goat-for-a-family-this-christmas#cards Lucky2, amazingkevin, ChelCass and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ike Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 that must be a happy goat. When I was a kid we raised goats and I never saw a goat smile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky2 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Cute bank Don, and it's a very nice thing your grandsons are saving their money for. Do you have a pay-pal acct, if you do, I wouldn't mind donating a few dollars for the cause? P M me if your interested. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
