    Yes Kevin, as you know this has been a long winter. Most of the evenings were spent at the workbench in my heated basement accompanied only by the radio.

    Well done. The upholstery came out really well and complements the woodworking.

    I have to say that I delight in the outstanding execution of craftsmanship on your work. Even though it's not "my style"...which is a subjective thing...I deeply appreciate the attention to detail that you had in creation of this magnificent chair in a very hard to execute style. Bravo!!!!

    Thanks Jim! When my wife and I got married 32 years ago, we bought a factory made Queen Anne dining table ( we both liked the style ). After it took a beating we passed it on to our son. We got a Chinese import made of rubber wood, which looked uglier every year. Last year I made a Queen Anne dining table. And now I need the chairs to match. We'll see how many I make.
