I'll make more.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-59362160844361312592012-03-29T09:42:39.291-04:002012-03-29T09:42:39.291-04:00I like seeing the parts all laid out like that.

I didn't realize how many parts went into make one of these till I lined them all up for a photo, fun to make though.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-83134583948135533072012-03-29T09:07:50.152-04:002012-03-29T09:07:50.152-04:00Hi Lori, thanks, the first two for flowers and the...Hi Lori, thanks, the first two for flowers and the second for wine barrels. You are right about loosing the freshness I think that's why I tend to make one of a kind because of that feeling of newness and freshness. I may make a couple of barrels to go in the cart. oops I probably can't fit them in there now, lol.

So often when we try to recreate a design, only better we loose that freshness. I think the vine pattern works great, I think of the cart being used to carry grapes or wine barrels. I'd keep playing with it, and let that play show. It'll be great.Lori Buffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00233955188892423314noreply@blogger.com
