Blackbird's Morning Ride D134 Class Bundle

This bundle includes the cut corner tray, pattern packet and Online Streaming class.  Purchase entitles you to lifetime access to the streaming class with a digital pdf packet with full color photos, instructions and worksheets.​This cut corner tray has been one of Jo Sonja's favorite pieces for decades.  Originally made from steel and tin but we have had this tray beautifully reproduced in alder and baltic birch.  All of the moldings are solid alder and the floor of the tray is birch ply.  The tray is wonderfully lightweight at just 10 ounces and yet is a full 17" long by 11" wide.  The exact dimensions of the original tin.
