As someone who made only one small ’’so called’’ intarsia, I can only say good work!

Before the years out I will try my first Intarsia project.
I bought and have studied the Kathy Wise book for tips.
Not sure I would post my first one but you are right, yours turned out pretty good…...................

Your cutting looks pretty good. You seem to have shaped all the pieces the same by rounding them. This kind of gives a flat look You might try using shims to create more depth and then shape pieces to enhance the effect so that pieces either blend together or look like one is behind the other.
Kathy Wise has good information about shims and shaping. I am still working to try to do this better.
