I know I have not posted for awhile

I have been busy with my move, traveling and trying to stay out of my shop more then when I was in Heppner. But I have been working on four different projects so it has taken me time to get around to finishing them in a timely manner. I have however completed two of them today. One is for my grandson who is a captain in special forces in North Carolina and the other is for our church fund raiser silent auction where they will be paying off a debt they have had for awhile to build a school. This year they will be making the final payment and since we are new to Casa Grande, Arizona, I decided to make a little intarsia angle for the auction. I choose a pattern that I purchased several years ago and I have used it mainly to give to  people that  are either ill with a serious problem or just need something that I hoped would comfort them in a small way, knowing someone is praying and cares for them. So I modified the Judy Roberts angle pattern a little because I  wanted to see what it would look like in a little different way and I cut a pattern of whom I can not recall the maker of the pattern, but I thought my grandson would like it as he just is finishing up his Special Forces training.
