Tapatoru Whanau, Triangle and Family
This piece is a nice way to connect a mother with her whanau. The koru in the middle represent the members of her whanau and come together in a manawa or heart shape for the aroha between these people.

This was a cool job to do. I really liked the natural finish of these pieces as well as how they ended up looking with the full kuru lashing. You can see in the photos below the starting point and then the process I went through to reshape them for the lashing.
