Recent Carvings

Here are a few pictures of recent projects we've did during meetings. We've worked a bit on study sticks for eyes also.

May Meeting on the 10th

We will be meeting at First Electric Cooperative in Jacksonville on Saturday May 10th from 9-12.  

Bring your finished pieces for a "show and tell" time and your current projects for carving time.  We will discuss summer meeting plans and future plans for projects and classes.  Hoping that Mike Pounders will share info on this recent Carving Week in Lebanon, Tennessee.  I am going this weekend to the Mountain Home Carvers show and will have info also.  Look forward to seeing you!!!

Thanks to so many of you that checked on us in Mayflower, we are fine, lots of destruction within 2 blocks of us, but we are very thankful for our safety and continue praying for others. 

Call if you need more info..... and HAPPY CARVING!!!

February 15th Meeting!

At our January meeting we decided to set a regular meeting date of the third Saturday of each month.  So....our February meeting is Saturday, February 15, 2014.  We'll be at the First Electric Cooperative in Jacksonville.  Come ready to carve and share your work.  With all the ice and snow, there's been lots of indoor time to finish up some woodcarvings.

 

See you on February 15!-------as always, weather permitting....
