The 85-year old matriarch of our family is famous for saying, "You can't make this stuff up!" It has become our family motto (and, if you knew my family, that would totally make sense).

She has volunteered to do an embroidery of anything I wish, so, of course, I want to have her embroider a latin-ized version of that phrase.

Anyone care to take a crack at it? : )

@Lordyaswas,
I just left out some fresh-baked cookies in hopes that they might lure the elusive George...

Oh, "Gentle"? Wow, I wonder what your vigorous nudges are like!

@George,
George, thank you so much! It's crazy to get latin translations from kind strangers, but, "Ista confingere non potes"!
