Make a Cloud:

I used scrap fabric. Sewed it together and then sewed special cloud like stitches and then cut it out. Now its a puffy cloud that can be hung on a wall or used in applique. I hope this counts as its a bit different

I love the picture of the Denver Daisy, the Inyo Rock Daisy, and the Subalpine Fleabane! They are beautiful! I love your research!

I love how different they are yet so similar.

@innerchildtml well, well, well, look who has nailed their assignments already 😄 I always knew you would do great.

Summer Bucket List
I love that this includes healthy activities, family time, as well as personal moments for you. I hope you will be able to do all this and more.

Daisy Research
Showing off your big brain with this incredible list of Daisies. I love how you made it personal to you again with the lists from your states. 

Make a Cloud
Very impressive technical skills! I think you have made a wonderful choice of fabrics to make a beautiful patchwork cloud that I hope you are very proud of.

My Decision...
Hmmm... you know technically 😉 'fleabanes' are mostly in the 'Erigeron' genus where as in the stricter botanical usage 'true daises' are mostly in the 'Bellis' genus, or 'Leucanthemum' genus such as the common garden daisy... do I accept fleabanes as daises or do I have to disqualify you... very tricky decision... 😜

hmmm... tricky, tricky, tricky.... 😁

what will I decide... 🤔

Spoiler

🏆CONGRATULATIONS 🏆

Of course I would never be so mean! Your work is amazing!

... and after very careful consideration, I will accept fleabanes as daisies, as “daisy” when used as an informal term is often used for members of the Astereae tribe within the Asteraceae family, including genera such as Bellis, Leucanthemum, and Erigeron. So it is totally fine, your research was amazing, and the flowers you chose were very beautiful. 

You have done so well, and shown such a wide variety of skills and talents.

I am very much looking forward to seeing what you make next for the Earth Day Badge.

I hope you take a moment to feel proud of yourself. You deserve it.

🥳

P.S. This is what happens when I write replies at 3am... 😆
