Here's my brother's chessboard finally finished.

A few miscellaneous gifts I like to have on hand.

These trivets have hangers and are decorative only.

Gosh, Bethie, your work is just beautiful!
I know there will be some mighty big smiles on Christmas morning
when those gifts are opened.

I also just saw the peacock feathers that Jan posted in the gallery, !!WOW!!

Wow Bethie those are beautiful! My favorite is the one with the Iris' bloom.
Nothing beats getting a hand made gift at Christmas, especially if they are as beautiful as those.

Love that chessboard Bethie (I play a lot of chess these days). I'm sure your brother will get a great surprise when he receives it. I like the way it is wider than normal chessboard to have a place to put the defeated pieces. Just brilliant Very Happy
