Thank y'll for the kind comments. I have new pics to add and I haven't even updated my show schedule. I have to get out of the shop one of these days.
Cherie, it took me two weeks to cut it out and five weeks to put it together. After all that cutting I was very careful when it came to the assembling. The pattern is available from Wildwood Design. There are three in the series: my gondola, ferris wheel, and carnival swing. My teacher has done the ferris wheel. It is great. We use them as "attention getters" at our craft shows and they sure do work.
Duke, the elegant cross is a Dirk Boelman design. Check him out at the following:
