Merle,my ole friend,I dont know?? If the picture your sister sent you was anywhere like this carving or not? CAUSE It had to be a very nice picture to half way keep up with the quality and exceptional carving that you did with this ornament plus the super neat finish you created!!
In simple words,mighty fine my friend!!

Forrest

Hi Forrest,you sure know how to make a guy feel good about his little piece of wood. The Sister will get it Tues or Wed. next week, then I'll know if she likes it or not. Thank you my Ole Friend on your very kind words. Stay Well. Merle
