NC Scroller Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I hope I did this right. I am the "new guy". Many have asked about seeing my work. While I borrowed the idea from a pattern using a music score in a magazine this actual design is my own. This is a piece I made last year. It was a commission piece for the retiring director of our local women's choir. The piece is walnut on a maple backer. The music score shown actually corresponds to the words shown below it. The song was the director's favorite that is why it was choosen. vykus, amazingkevin, Karen3928 and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NC Scroller Posted August 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Thanks for all the postive comments. It really was a challegene especailly since I am not a designer. The actual pattern was done on paper and not with any software though I did printing of some random images off the internet. I almost gave up on the design but stuck with it. I have heard the plaque sits on a stand in the front room of the lady who was honored. Everyone who enters sees it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
