Thank you but what do you think of my wood carvings?

@gruntius is being modest here. He also does an excellent wood whittling workshop, teaching the intricate skills of the craft, condensed into simple advice. If I remember rightly, it goes:
“just take out the bits you don’t want”.
Genius.

I guessed as much. I’d love to have a go at wood whittling.
Something I have at home is this hand-cut wooden jigsaw puzzle, made by @heather-prydderch. It’s Vermeer’s ‘The little street’, which I have always loved because it made me wonder what was going on behind all those shuttered windows. Heather made me a three-layer puzzle, where the doors and windows lift off to reveal… but that would be telling! The puzzle has 1,145 pieces, including the hand-painted frame, and is a work of art of a work of art.
And this is a photo showing two of the layers.

That’s marvellous! I’ve never heard of a three-layer puzzle before.
Wow, that’s brilliant!
Incredible!
amazing!
Playing with creative things definitely helps sanity in times like this. I enjoy making greeting cards and over the past months (following a suggestion by my cousin) have made a bunch for a care home. The cards are all different, and it’s a chance to try various new techniques or have to invent some way to use the accumulating pieces-and-parts.

When I went there, I think this was probably the place that I realised that I’de like to learn Welsh, a old ladies came up to me and asked if my dog understood welsh, I said she couldn’t and off she went, I think to myself was that her way of asking if I could speak Welsh, and I wonder what she’s doing 2 years later,
The photo is of my mum and dad taken 2 years ago

Hard to eat that Beskar steel 
I was tempted to trade it in for a landspeeder but apparently that’s not the way…
What an incredible and inventive cake! Lucky Beuno. I can’t imagine how you did it.
