Post by: Bone pile on February 02, 2013, 04:14:28 pm

One of the relatives wanted a pine needle bowl so I made this for her.Fla pine needles and black artificial sinew.

Now it's off to look for some fresh needles.Have to dry for awhile.Gives me plenty of daylight for knapping

That is purely artistic. You are a craftsman for sure. I've alwayss admired this kind of work as well as bead work.   Danny

Funny you should say that Eddie,when I first started doing these a year or so ago,I went to the seinior frenship center and sat in with the gals to get some pointers.They looked at my stuff and said I was doing fine.They then wanted to know were I was finding my needles 12" + ;D
