Hi Doris, your flower panel is coming along nicely nice design flow. I wonder regarding the small bud stem, if you just gave it a little more curve near the bottom. What ya think?

yes mark, i believe you that, just from the amount of work i see you get done :-)
yes kathy, that is also better what i had cut first, thanks :-) i have however today already changed that area in a different way, since i not saw your post earlier. i put the lower part of the stem behind the leave which is flowing to the side... i will show soon, and i hope you like my solution too. thanks again for your thoughts, very appreciated :-)
oh, btw, i regrinded my new #5 tools, to make them a tad bullshaped and a little bellied, i had forgotten that. now it carves much cleaner without me doing different :-)

Great detail for working with pine. I haven't had as much success with it. Beautiful work Doris!
