I don't know if anyone else went to look at the Ennis House (on the web not in person) but if not and you are interested here is a good starting point:

The photo tour should be part of your visit.

Sorry the advertisement seems to keep coming up but it goes away with a click so don't let that stop you from reading the piece.

What a fantastic design. That is a wonderful reproduction. I would like to have a pattern. Hmmm! Google search.

Just goes to show, there is no such thing as scraps. Just progressively smaller off cuts and waste.

Nice use of leftovers!

Basically his style, but nothing close to a reproduction of one of his classic designs. I am not trashing you, but I would not call it a FLW piece, not even close except for all the square work.
I don't know about this but it sure resembles other FLW works.

If you look at his glass work, and I dont know how to verbalize it, but the squares cut in/over lab the opposite way.
In FLW designed's the inner square would cut into the outer squares, NOT the out squares into the inner squares!!! It is have back ass words!!!!!
