Default Grandma's Sewing Basket

Hi all,
Here is another minature I completed last week. I think that is about it for minatures this year. The little bear was quite a challange and I seem to be getting a little more use out of my woodburner. Hope you enjoy it.

Thanks so much for your kind comments. Tom H - I do not carve with a group or club. I have put on demonstrations and taught a couple classes but find that I prefer to carve alone. Claude - The dimensions of the piece are 1 5/8" high x 1 3/4" deep x about 1 7/8" wide.
