Eagle Scout Project Almost Finished


Cheetah has been working hard on organizing and leading his Eagle Scout Project.  In November he had a big service day at the church.  In a four hour time period sixteen quilts were tied.

He was able to get it set up in the cultural hall at our church building.


The turn out was great, and he was an awesome teacher.


His dad was supportive and even tied two of the quilts.  I think it is the first time I have seen my husband use a needle.


Panda even got involved and did amazing.


I think Cheetah was exhausted after we were all cleaned up.


One of the quilts was tied previously as an example, so only three quilts were left to be finished after the big service day.  One family took a quilt home with them, and Cheetah took the last two to a recent troop meeting.


I love seeing boys sew.

Cheetah, my husband, and I have gone over all 20 quilts and fixed any problem ties.  Now all that is left of his project is the paper work and turning them in to Project Linus.  It is so exciting!!!

Thanks for all of your encouragement along the way.

XX,
Jasmine
