Lots of Progress

So much progress today… block #7 for the 100 Days project is done. 

Donovan and I did a couple of science-y things tonight - watched the embroidery background paper dissolve and disappear in a bowl of water (he was fascinated and is a lot more interested in my sewing project now 😁) 

 I told him to ‘smile like you’re going to see Mom’. Much bigger energy. 

and the ever popular soda/vinegar volcano to clean a (very) burnt baking dish. Good thing baking soda (he used a whole box) and white vinegar (only used half a gallon jug…) are inexpensive and easily replaced! Worth every penny to see how much fun he had.

Matt and Mary made it from wake-up in Albuquerque NM to somewhere in Arkansas tonight. 

OK clouds

Mary said OK is pretty but she wasn’t a fan of the Texas panhandle. Still planning to be in SC by tomorrow night. 

Donovan finished Lego project #2 (of 3). Mary said she’s having more kits delivered. Sure hope so or somebody is gong to be verrrrrrrry bored. Still 10 days to go before we fly out to SC.

I’m just over halfway done making blocks for the windmill quilt. 

I goofed and cut the first batch of pieces to size before sewing them together, rather than sewing long strips together, then cutting to size. It probably doubled the time I’ve spent on this project. Note to self: think it through next time!
