Very nice.
So neat that you are making both at the same time.

Looking good. Brings back memories, I did a couple like that when my Grandson was small. How old is the daughter?

Nice looking bows.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Well, not a great start. Was fresh wood and it cracked in the riser, but best possible cracking if it had to crack. :)
