her best tools in bringing out the grain in woodwork While she is skilled in the use of power tools which represent a small fortune in her workshop hand polishing is her greatest asset Mrs seldom ever buys a pattern for her furniture making She draws free hand patterns cutting them out with a band or jigsaw She trusts to her per sonal taste for original design Most of her planning of design and proportions is thought up af ter she goes to bed at night She has travelled a great deal and never loses an for spotting new ideas She will not use anything but the finest of seasoned woods because hand labor would be wasted on cheap material Her process of bleaching is a secret known only to her hus band Frank and one other per son The latter is a skilled craftsman and interior decora tor As
