Woodworking

So, Judy was here for an entire week. What else did we do during that week??? Well, we took on another project in a completely different material - woodwork. We've been making quilts together for several years, and Judy needed a place to store/display hers. She hasn't been able to find a ready-made quilt rack that she likes. So we scoured the web for designs until we found one she liked. The boys made a trip to the lumberyard, and then we spent a few days covered in Cherry sawdust. The first picture shows the end pieces after glue-up. Our hero Norm is right, "you can never have too many clamps."

















The next picture shows part of the team with the finished product (well, Judy is taking it home for final sanding, stain, etc). In an amazing feat, this is the only known photo with Judy looking directly at the camera with her eyes open while everyone else is not paying attention!
