Update #9: this update isn't super exciting...

Posted on February 19, 2010

last night was spent doing a lot of prep work.

a base coat of color was applied to around 150 or 160 boards.

designs were sketched out on 74 of those boards.

the photo below is the result.

the first stack is the 74 that i've got the designs sketched out on.

the second tiny stack are those words and phrases that have me currently stumped.

the third stack is all the pledges i've received, but no words submitted yet. *ahem*

things are taking shape :)
