Denny Knappen Posted April 19, 2016 Report Posted April 19, 2016 On May 6th and 7th, Dayton, TN has the annual Strawberry Festival. This pattern by Shelia Landry is a great addition to my booth at ArtCrafters. I used 1/2" Mahogany with 1/4" Red Cedar for the strawberries. It measures approximately 8" x 9". I made many candle holders by Sheila, but none more intricate than this one. I didn't count the holes, but there are nine strawberries each with 10 holes. I think I have about 5 hours into this project. Comments welcome. jerry1939, Lucky2, Neil Selley and 2 others 5 Quote

Denny Knappen Posted April 20, 2016 Author Report Posted April 20, 2016 I just couldn't do it in one sitting. Cut some and then do something else. Quote
