Dogwood - finished

[barb.j.enders]

Got this finished today.  You can see the progress in "works in progress".  Finished with three coats of shellac.  I wouldn't normally show the back but I love the grain!!

You have an artistic eye, very nicely done.

Hubby helped with the choice of backer.  I had two pieces to choose from.  He also pointed out the swirl of the grain lined up with the upper left leaf.

My, Barb, that is a work of art.  Dogwoods will be in bloom in another week here in TN.

We are -14 C right now (8am Sat). It will be weeks before things start to bloom.

We heard about the forecasted snow.  Lots of Winnipeger's travel to ND & Minneapolis during our spring break and our news station commented about the storm warning.

That is beautiful! Great idea for mounting it.

Thanks Marg.  Short space of time for intarsia - yes.  Not so much for regular scrolling.  I came across a piece that I had dated - 2009.  It was a puzzle, so I know that it was done a few years after I started scrolling.
