I blogged this project at the beginning of the year. It originally was for my mother. Due to a sizing issue I had to re-purpose it. It was converted to the cutting board and cheese board configuration you see pictured. My MIL should be very pleased with her birthday gift.
I made the boards from Maple, Cherry, and Walnut using Titebond III as the glue. Note for all, they call this a “scrap wood”project. I had to drop a little dough to get enough lumber to finish this project up. I guess if you call a 8” x 4’ long board scrap…then you will be just fine. If you consider a board 18” log scrap your playing in my backyard….

Nice job, sIKE. I really like the wood combination as well. I am sure that your MIL will adore it. After all it doesn’t hurt to stay on her good side. :)
