That's a really nice story. I don't care about woodworking, so I skipped some of those bits, but I enjoyed it. Thanks for the post!

That first link!!! Such a great story and so charmingly told. I can't wait to read her book now. I love anyone who can do a thing well and loves to talk about.

It's worth saying that I don't know much about publishers but Lost Art Press can have my money any day. Christopher Schwarz is a damn national treasure and their efforts to reprint books that are otherwise unavailable is outstanding as well.

That is a great little profile of a fascinating person. And sweet jebus her chairs are beautiful. I will own one someday. I will.
