Here are three more Cypress knee Santas that we just finished. They are on their way to Houston.

Nancy, I sell anywhere there is money, including Houston. Joking aside these were sold to a lady from Houston who saw some of our work at the National Quilt Museum and then came out to the shop to see more. But for your information we ship anywhere.

Gee, Doug - you really know how to intimidate people. I'm lucky to get one carving done a week...

Why are a few of the cypress knees much darker than the rest - from a different area, dried differently, or...?

Great job on the Knee's Doug! I really need to get around to boiling the bark off the ones I have so I can try my hand at them. Yours turned out real nice! You sure have been busy!
