My entire woodworking guild makes the trip to this show. Our goal is to each enter a piece every year. It was a full van with three big pieces and a bench for my booth.
Don, who made this tea table last year,
entered a high chest of drawers.
Chris, Don's son, entered a 2/3 sized highboy last year.
He continued with his style this year as he entered a 2/3 sized chest of drawers this year.
Just wait until you see what Chris has for 2013...
And, of course, there is mine. (This will be the last time I bother you with a picture.)
Now I'll go back to Turbotax.
Matt,
ReplyDeleteThere must have been a lot of impressive pieces this year if all three of those didn't win something. I'm sorry to have missed the show, I couldn't get away from work.

Hopefully you'll be able to make it there next year. The show was great.
DeleteMatt,
ReplyDeleteYour piece is impressive and way beyond my skills. Congratulations.
By the way, what is that red, white and blue to the right rear? Looks like a horse.

Terry,
DeleteThanks for the comment and reading.
That is a horse in the background of the picture. I wish I had taken more. There was a ton of very impressive pieces there.
Chris, Don, and Matt paid the heavy price for not being NWA members. If you want them ribbons, boys, pony up yer dues.
ReplyDeleteThere were no 'honorable mention' or 'professional excellence' awards given out in our category because "the judges will not award ribbons if they don't feel like there is a deserving piece." At least two of the other three ribbons went to NWA members.
DeleteIt's okay. We'll keep going. It's strange and disappointing, but still a lot of fun.
