Thank you, everyone this carving has been so rewarding for me. I love that you all like it.
Don by the lake: I do have a few more smaller pieces of this CO. Bark. One will be used for a little bark house I'm going to learn how to carve. We have cottonwood bark near my home, but not sure it's thick enough. It's either what they call narrow leaf or Fremont Cottonwood. Will carve some and see what happens or try anyway. lol
Thanks again
Kathy
