GPscroller Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 My one true weakness in patterns is crosses. Very nice job on all three. I love working with padauk but will not touch purple heart, you are a brave man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonylumps Posted August 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) My one true weakness in patterns is crosses. Very nice job on all three. I love working with padauk but will not touch purple heart, you are a brave man! I like to do crosses too.But I thought just the opposite Why did you find the purple heart more difficult.I thought the Padauk harder to work because of the way it bleed.But after reading up on it a little shellac did the trick.
