Default My quilt piece

At last I'm getting this photos business sorted out!!! I think!

Anyway here's my piece. I finished it a while ago but wainted for the guy who gave me permission to do it,view it first. Because it is a company logo I made sure I had the right permission and then he sent me some line drawings for it. One of the conditions for using it was to acknowledge who provided the design seeing it is a regisistered logo. So I decided to put it where it could be seen so as I covered myself completely - hope it doen't distract from the work too much. (I just didn't want anyone else seeing it and copying it without the same permission.)

It is my very first piece of Intarsia and I did have fun doing it. the arms ad face is NZ rimu, the beak??? and the shirt and cap is silky oak. It is on a piece of Gaboon ply. When I committed to a square all I could think of was to do this piece (nothing else seemed appropriate to me.) Anyway hope you all think it's OK.

Let me be the first to say Good job mate!

I've yet to try doing any intarsia, but I'd say you did great, better yet, you said it yourself you had fun doing it!

That's the spitting image of the owner of our local hardware store!

What a witty design, and so nicely made, Teresa.
