Default Hi from PA!

Hi everyone! I just left a question on the "Beginners" forum, and then came across this so I figured I should introduce myself. My name is Jill. I've been seriously trying to wood carve for two years now when time allows. I belong to our local wood carvers club, but unfortunately, with two young babies, I don't get there very often. So, I'm left to try and teach myself - mostly from reading books and trial and error. My work doesn't compare to any I've seen on this site, but I've definitely got the inspiration to get there!

Welcome aboard Jill!!
Most carvers start out with a desire, a few tools and not much else. Your in the right place. Great bunch of folks who are willing to help you along.

Hi, Jill, and welcome! Nobody I know started as an experienced carver, but with some determination and desire (which sometimes fades for a while) carvers are born from ordianry folks with a knife!

Welcome aboard Jill. If you have energy left to carve after taking care of two young'ins, then you must be bitten well by the carving bug! Any way we can help you, you just ask. We'll be glad to help. Have fun carving, it's a great way to relax.

Bob
