"No sight so sad as that of a naughty child," he began, "especially a naughty little girl. Do you know where the wicked go after death?"
"They go to hell," was my ready and orthodox answer.
"And what is hell? Can you tell me that?"
"A pit full of fire."
"And should you like to fall into that pit, and to be burning there for ever?"
"No, sir."
"What must you do to avoid it?"
I deliberated a moment: my answer, when it did come was objectionable: "I must keep in good health and not die.”
[Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre]
What a spirited young girl Jane Eyre was when she was young. Orphaned when she was very young, Jane was placed in the home of her wicked aunt and her dysfunctional family. Her unhappy time there was later alleviated somewhat when she was sent to boarding school and met the angelic Helen Burns at Mr Brocklehurst's Lowood School for girls. Since girls would be expected to make their own clothes, Jane was no doubt taught the art of needlecraft. Get into the spirit of Jane's spunky personality and pick up a crochet hook and some silky Chinese rope, and make this super cute silver gray tote for your quick trips to the corner store or newsagents!
