This is what it looked like when the form was taken off the side...
Jim took a file and rounded the edges a little bit....
And then, started to cut the sunflower away.... The cement is really, really soft so we didn't want to cut down too far into the stone just in case it fell apart before it was totally cured.
This is what it's going to look like while it's curing and the rest of the sunflower is decaying... As it decays, and cures, we can pull more of it out...You can see where the leaves are woven through the cement... Just what we wanted!
We are totally excited and happy with the progress!

Wait till we get to the center. It should be very interesting if it casts up like I think it will. J.S.
