"The All American" has been installed in its rightful place on the porch and the puzzle table, lovingly crafted from a cherry tree (removed from our property years ago), has been placed in front, as designed. The R,W & B wall quilt was just the pop of color that the plain, boring, brick expanse of wall needed.
The table measures 18" X 48" with the leaves down, as pictured (48" X 36" with leaves up). The plan is for many hours spent around this table constructing jigsaw puzzles from our vast collection. I hope to add two bar stools (possibly red) on either side to complete this work area. Mr. Goodneedle constructed this beauty without any hardware (except the hinges and leveling feet), it is solid wood throughout. I can't wait to break out that first puzzle, this is just the pastime I've dreamed of for this space! I Face-Timed my parents to show them our completed projects and my mother declared that Mr. G and I made a good team; yep, I assured her that was because we'd had years of practice! 😉
Life is Good!
