Jane's Rocking Chair 
Leather and Wood are two naturals that go well together. When a nice women asked if I would be interested in restoring a worn leather rocking chair seat for her I was happy to give it a try. She mailed me the original seat which was embossed with a rather interesting design. Normally I transfer my designs from a finished sketch but in this instance I tried to work more by freehand on the transfer and came up with a one of a kind piece.

The flatbed scanner which is a common accessory with many home computer system is a great way to document a project and Jane was happy to see her new seat take shape. My scanner was just a bit too narrow for this circle but it worked rather nicely anyway.  Now I like to photograph my work before it goes out the door.
