On the Home Stretch...

....made it through the 4-H interviews. Shadowman was with his interviewer forever...that boy is a talker. The girls were told that 5 projects was a little ambitious. Good to know.

You'd think they'd be done, but they're not. No, now they have to make posters for parts of their projects. The "exhibits" aren't actually turned in yet.

And of course, we need a booth display.

I volunteered to make a banner. I'll fit that right into the schedule.

We're going to have a little fashion show... we always have to twirl with this skirt.

Bella made this by herself. I didn't even have to peek at it. The directions on this pattern are that good (and yes, she must be good at following directions too). It's the Hip Skirts pattern, (sold out of those last week, but will get more.) Yes, we've made this skirt pattern before, but that's okay.

Featuring Baskets of Flowers fabric. She was going to have a white double skirt layer at the bottom, but that's still laying on the ironing board, so I think she changed her mind.

Lizzie's was challenging. Her requirements are more difficult, but she did really well. Learned all kinds of things about interfacing, darts, curves, and sleeves.

Here she is ready for Fall in her Wonderland dress. She's still debating on the bottom band; I think she's nervous to take it off. It actually finishes the hem very nicely.

Hurray! Congrats girls!

Reaching a goal never felt so good.
