And, that's a wrap.

Monday, September 10, 2007.

That's the day I sat down to write my first blog post, not knowing if anyone would ever be interested in reading it. But, that was okay. My sole reason for starting a blog was to make friends with other likeminded folks. And if that didn't happen, I'd just head back to my quiet little corner of the woodworking world.

But it did happen. I made tons of friends. And I never could have predicted all the other things that occurred over the next five and a half years because of my blog.

I'm grateful for all the opportunities that came my way, the encouragement I received, and the knowledge I gained.

For the first three years, I was obsessed with "feeding my blog" with visits to historic sites and woodworking events, and pushing myself to try new things.

Since then, I've cut back on blogging. With so much great content out there through podcasts and blogs, and online communities such as the Modern Woodworkers Association, it seems as though all the bases are covered.

I played fastpitch softball until I was 33 years old. That's when I decided to hang up my cleats while I was still playing good ball.

I'm not sure what my next step is in woodworking, but I feel that it's time to take a seat on the bench in the blogging league and watch the game from the cheering section.

With that, I'll leave you with some of my favorite posts, and offer you my most sincere appreciation for reading The Village Carpenter blog.

All the best to you.
~Kari

    Great fun, and thank you! I learned a lot from your posts, and truly enjoyed reading them.

    Also it was nice to meet you at PATINA a while back when were on our east coast trip.

    Your words and photos are top notch and inspirational, Kari. Will be sad to never see any more updates from The Village Carpenter.

    But I get it.

    Feel free to pester me on my blog, if you ever want. Or you can be a Guest Blogger, I suppose, if you don't mind associating with a miscreant.

    Sad to hear that you are leaving the blog world. It is your blog that got me hooked on following blogs in the first place. I was looking for down to earth people that enjoyed woodworking and I stumbled on to your sight early on in your start up and have been following since. Good luck and hope that this is a sabbatical as another said and that you will come back to it. If not, I can truly say that I have enjoyed your blog. Thank you !!!!

    OK. That's unbecoming, isn't it?

    Seriously, like everyone else, I've enjoyed every single post. And when I recently completed a treadle lathe and discovered how easily it can be controlled, I thought "This is a lathe that Kari could like."

    Kari, hate to see you go, but I get it. I made my first post in my brand new blog back on 8/15/09 and worked hard to post things people could learn from, as well as sharing my work with friends and family. For the most part I was happy with the results, but have slowed down posting because of what you mentioned, there are so many resources out there it's had to sift through it all. Maybe I will see you at WIA in October.

But sometimes you just know that it's time to move on. Thank you for everything you have done, and no doubt will continue to do, for the betterment of the craft. You hav certainly left your mark. Keep on making shavings, and I hope we get to cross paths again somewhere down the road.

You will continue to help woodworkers long after you stop writing here and thank you so much for creating this incredibly helpful and honest resource.

    Kari, it is truly a sad day for me, I do totally understand that life moves on and we must evolve with it. I just wanted you to know that your posts have helped convince my partner that she can be creative with woodworking, I love my tiny shop, not many tools as yet but enough that I can make small things, now she has taken over the shop area and I love it! Oh and by the way, I am 63 retired/disabled with RA, she is "retired" to help care for me.
    Wishing you and your partner many many years of happiness, as someone else said, you are the First Lady of Woodworking!! You will be sorely missed, God Bless and keep you in the palms of his hands today and for always...

Your post have always been so detailed and meticulous, while not being long winded and boring. A skill we can all learn from. Your work has always been so inspirational, and a level of work that some of us dream of achieving.

    Oh yes: one little thing. I did finally find a dovetailing plane, from Preston in Aberdeen, probably 1840s to 1860s. It had all its parts -- but fettling it has taken a long, long time! I'm nearly there -- one last bit of hollowing in the sole to hone away. You kindly chatted with me about dovetail planes. I went on to take Phil Lowe's wonderful, inspirational, transformative dovetailing class at Lie-Nielsen Toolworks this summer. Now if only I had enough time to practice my lessons!

    With warm regard,

    Hi! Just pinging you on the off change that you have another blog somewhere -- regardless of the degree of woodworking content. You are an engaging writer. :)

    Also, I'm pretty sure I mentioned this before, but because of your blog (the title, plus your explanation of), I tracked down the Village Carpenter book -- which was engaging, illuminating and useful (much like your blog!). So if nothing else, your blog serves to publicize a book which many people may not know of.

    Hey Gye! I'm glad you found The Village Carpenter book and enjoyed reading it. It's still one of my favorites. Sorry to tell you that I do not have another blog. I'll keep this one up as long as blogger allows it in case people can find some helpful information. I actually stepped away from woodworking after I wrote this last entry and am now working with leather. I hope you are well! I would recognize your name anywhere. :)

    Well -- the non-public life is good, too. :)

    Glad you've left the blog up: from skimming the recent(-ish) comments, I can see that it still serves as a resource.

    Haven't done leatherworking, myself. Am pleased that you have yet another creative endeavor (I suppose you use your "woodworking" workbench for leatherworking?).

    I use a different bench for leather, one that I made from 2x4s. I'd hate to get leather stain on Greta! haha

    Hi! Just a quick note to say that I **still** think your blog is informative and entertaining: was Googling for an old blog entry of mine on dowel plates, to share with a co-worker -- and came across my comment in your "broke a dowel on a table: used my L-N dowel plate" entry.

    Still sorry you left. Do you have a replacement blog, on any other topic? You're a good writer. :)
