Thanks John!
Mary,
I have enjoyed watching your videos. The information you provide is very helpful. I’ve been carving for about two months and only started when I found your web site. I watched the free videos and was hooked.
I like the lily & rose and have been working on it. I’ve completed several of your designs in poplar and just found a local supplier for basswood. I love your work so keep it coming.

Thank you! Have fun!!
Hi Mary,
I just completed this project. I did it in maple as you did. The only thing I did a little different I expanded it from the original 5-3/4″ X 2-1/4″ to 7″ X 2/76 to better fit on a 10″ X 5-1/2″ board. Doing flowers is such a rewarding challenge!

Congrats! Maple can be quite a challenge. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
