Yes, I'm still in! Not that trim shown, but I will get it done.

I'm thinking about a small, fully carved, side table...

Thoughts? Would you guys like that?

Wow some really great stuff here.

Well I did not think there would not be much to work with on this one
but looks like people came up with lots of ideas.

I have eaten crow before and it tastes like chicken.

IDoVoodoo - glad to hear you are still in! Trim or table or whatever else inspires you is fine!
TikiSkip - :wink:

I had to start over but I'm hoping to have it done by this weekend!

WHOOHOOO! Glad you are in Bitterfishies, can't wait to see your progress

I'm so pumped to be a part of this... these pieces are just AMAZING! COME ON END OF THE MONTH!!!!

Finally making some progress, gotta finish this week because I'm out of the country next week. The kiln was only down to about 300 degrees this morning, cool enough to open and snap a quick pic but not cool enough to remove it yet.

My fabric paints didn't take well on my original try, so I redid it using embroidery instead. It helped the Parrots stand out against the fabric. It's a little over stuffed, but that will help it live up to normal everyday wear better. (and it's machine washable!)

I"ll try to take better photo's if the sun comes out. it's looks like it's going to rain all day where I am.

Wow. The pillow is great!

SewTiki- came out great my dear
BitterF- awesome, send to Vegas :)


Days to go

CY you are so right, what a great swap.

Cheers, Wendy

Wow...Great job everyone.

The pillow idea is killer...could you imagine your bamboo tiki lounge couch filled up with swap pillows? I'm thinking that right now.

Hang10 - Wow. Freeking sweet.

Mike - You pulled it off and it looks great!!!

Sew Tiki, awesome piece! Amazing work yet again on the swap!!! Keep up the great work

I agree, there's lots of cool swap items! I didn't know there were so many creative people on the the board!

What's that u ask
How many dayZ left?

Wow there is some incredible artwork this time around I can't wait to see who gets what.
Sorry I haven't been present much in the comments been pretty busy but here is my entry for the swap.
