Autumn Leaves
« on: November 29, 2012, 03:54:22 pm »
I made this Intarsia for a special couple back East.  It?s made in three separate pieces, so it can be hung with or without using the WELCOME portion of the Intarsia.

The three sections are: The WELCOME, the main section and the spacer between the two, which can be used or left off.   (Looks good either way).

I used the basic pattern, found in November 2011 issue of Creative Woodworks magazine and added the spacer and an additional leaf to balance it out.
 
The overall size is 8? X 18?
Woods Used = Alder, Cherry, Hickory, Pine and various shades of Walnut.

You do good, no, great.  All the adjectives have been used.  I could say great on all your stuff, but that would be old in a hurry.
