My carving mentor had surgery and I carved this little gal for him. He and his wife collect carved mice. Hope it makes his day.

Thanks Bill V. He did so well, he went home the next day. I am gonna have to take it to him at home. He has helped me so much in my carvings and flowers just don't seem right for a guy to get.

Thanks Jim for the compliment. I used my micro drill to make tiny holes and then quickly use super glue to hold fishing line in...20 lbs test looked the best on her.

Thanks Big Ed...don't know if he will cherish it or laugh so hard he gets well quicker! He has some awesome mice in his collection.
