Thank you.  I do like the live edge.  Starting to run out of my supply.

That was really nice!  I am always so impressed with how you choose your woods for the perfect details...especially your flowers!  Have you ever done a bouquet of flowers?

Thanks.  I haven't done a bouquet yet.  I will generally take what the designer has suggested.

Barb, do the designers offer what wood to use ( name ), because when i was looking at an intarsia to do, it only offered I (light), M (medium) and D (dark) shades, which made it more confusing for me, RJ

It depends on the designer.  The pattern I am choosing wood for now lists actual wood.  It suggests Butternut for one section, Western Red Cedar for another.  Janet Square actually lists wood choices as does Steve Bundred.  I think JGR only lists M, L, D.
