How can you say no?

I had no idea of what a "knot garden" was until I googled it. Be glad she is making that part! : )

"Embroidered knot garden, shadow boxes, curio cabinets? There is a disturbing pattern here. Are you turning into an artsy fartsy woodworker? ;-)

Looks like too much work for you Leon ;-) That might take you all morning.

Armed with 30 or 40 seconds of familiarity with knot gardens, I am puzzled by the specification above. Why would one open one side of a planter box, and how would one get it closed again if some of the soil shifts?

I think it's not a growing garden I think it's embroidery.

Dear Leon, You must say yes! I am in need of a wooden box for an embroidered knot garden.

Hah! A somewhat similar request, I had, to make the vertical planters for the master gardeners. Back then, I had no idea what a vertical planter was.

It's these atypical projects, I find, that can be challenging, in their own right. Kinna like applying one idea/application for/to another media/genre.

I'll look forward to the results. You'll have to show us Joanne's embroidery, also. Appreciating another's skills, in a different media, is enjoyable and appreciated, also, as with your wife's quilts.

I'll have to do some research also.. I'm clueless.

Ah'rek'n so. LOL. Swingman accused me of this when I designed and built the walnut entertainment nook innerd's

I think you are right, she is a major sewing person.

It's probably something like a piled up extension cord or rope. They tangle and create knots just like a garden grows weeds. :-)

That first sentence is worthy of a 20% price increase!

His wife will override that... :-O

I thought the same til I googled for "_embroidered_ knot garden"
