The Final Section – Progress Update

As most of you know, I started working on Section 4 in my family room while still finishing up Section 3 on the puzzle table in the basement.  Back in April I finally finished Section 3, but until today I had not had time to sit down there and flip the section over and put contact paper on the back.

Luckily, Cole took a long nap today, and Derek was willing to play in the basement while I worked to get the entire section flipped over and the contact paper added.  It took a while, and included one small puzzle mishap which cost me the re-work of about 40 pieces, but overall it didn’t take too long.

After the kids went to bed, I immediately decided to take all my working boards with various subsections of the final quarter down to the basement and start laying it out on the puzzle board.  I was pleasantly surprised to see that once it was all laid out together, I had accomplished more than I thought.  🙂

I would say at this point I am pretty close to the 50% mark for the section, which also means that I’m at around the 82.5% mark for completion of the entire puzzle.  WOOO HOOO!!!!  I’m gonna do it, I’m gonna do it!

Here are a couple of pictures…

Thanks for sticking with me – we’re almost there!  🙂
