    Post Autumn-Winter Whittlings!

    Just a few little whittling projects that I've done over the past few months...

    First attempt at a feather, wood was sub-standard but I learnt a few things


    Second attempt at a Feather...


    Third attempt at a Feather...


    I don't think the photos of the third feather above quite do it justice, it looks/feels nicer in person, the middle is thicker and it thins out nearer the edges. I really like this feather, it's my favourite one so far so I will be saving it to give to Claire for Christmas! .. hopefully she isn't reading this post

    More great carving Ash.
    This could end up morphing into a whittling forum

    Who's been a busy bee then...

    I'm not much of a carver yet, I'm still making the transition from bigger carpentry style woodwork to green wood and smaller tools so I'm full of praise for those can carve like this but I will get there.

    I like the feathers, not seen others like it around, one of them would look great mounted onto a pen nib and matched to a nice carved ink well...
