,, carved for my Granddaughter

My Granddaughter was such a fan of my carvings, I couldn't resist carving things for her.

I've done quite a few carvings like this, which is kind of rare for me, but I made them as gifts.

I love Hummingbirds, they're so feisty, & fun to watch.

I even taught a carving class of beginning carvers using this pattern.

My students all did a fine job with this, so I think its a pretty good beginners project.

I love this one in Black Walnut. I guess because its my favorite carving wood.

The size is about 6" x 8"

This was done in 1993.

Here's some more Hummers!
