and.... we made Thrills & Skills cookbooks

Here is our bunch of SKILLED 4H members - - - - - well, maybe here they more resemble 4H THRILL seekers!

Today was a second hard day of work getting ready for the fair. I was impressed to have 12 kids come back for a second dose of work! THANKS everyone -

Leave it to Mrs. G. No simple little collection of paper will do. NOPE - we BOUND our cookbooks. Here everyone gets to work cutting the cover papers. Aren't they pretty? Wills was handsome!

And then it got a tiny bit complicated - - Little pieces, cut corners just so - lots of glue spread evenly, folding tight round the corners. But we did a great job of paying attention and working together.

This even involved a needle and thread. a MIGHTY big and SHARP needle actually. Some were meticulous about making the holes 1" apart here....

It was tricky to put the sticky two-sided paper down and have it all line up right. Here Kathleen has her block of paper ready for sewing. Alyssa is hard at work too.

Maeve - with a beautiful creation. LOOK For it at the fair everyone! I'm hoping for a blue ribbon! Here are all of the books. Such a lovely display -nice work everyone.

Speaking of displays... everyone looks great and happy. LOVE IT!

SOMEONE likes BIG GIRL SHOES - they are "so so petty".
