Mole Day

On Friday we celebrated mole day in class. Mole day is an unofficial holiday celebrated among chemists on October 23, which celebrates Avogadro's number 6.02 times 10^23. To celebrate mole day we had to make a mole out of fabric and sew it together to bring into class. At first I wasn't sure how I was going to make the mole, because I didn't think I would be able to sew, but it wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be. The first step to making the mole was to cut out the fabric to match the templates that our teacher gave us. After I had all of these cut out i started to sew along the lines as the directions stated. I then stuffed the mole, finished sewing, and then finally added eyes, nose, and a tail. I thought that this project would be fairly difficult but it turned out not to be that bad.
