Finishing Up


Bronte finished her pillow
The girls had set a goal to have their fair projects by July 1 so we had a work meeting to help them do that yesterday.

Three of them finished their pastel artwork, Autumn will finish hers this week.  Jenna made another zipper pouch because she used her first one for a birthday gift (they do make great gifts).  Chloe worked on her self-designed crocheted purse and learned how to decrease to shape it.

Some of the girls prepared and sewed fair labels into their fabric entries.

 After working for an hour and a half or so, they changed into swim suits and we went to a neighborhood pool down the street (thanks, Deborah, for letting us come).  They swam, played pool tag, and had a great time in the water for an hour.  Great fun on a 90 degree day!

These photos show what they have been doing the past few weeks as they prepare for fair judging day coming up on July 20.
Alexa finished her doll quilt
