HA!  I'm not sure if I could have planned it to work like that...

Longtoke wanted myrtle that shimmered and had depth and Drewsbow wanted dark on the back and light on the belly. After cutting the veneers for Longtoke, I had 2 veneers left out of the block... no good unless someone wants different belly from back veneers. It does happen but not often.

Anyway, these were beautiful and light so Drewsbow got them. I never thought they would end up on the same thread. Is it as bad as two women wearing the same dress to the party? LoL

Those are going to look great!   I talked to Big Jim at the Tenn. Classic about ordering a Thunderchild.  The plan is to be put on the list next February.

Cool looks like Drew and I have a pair of half sister bows  :biglaugh:

I'm glad that extra set of beautiful veneers didn't go to waste.
