Apparently, it wasn't inspired by Hardanger fiddles. I was the second person to remark on the resemblence to one.
Made a few more passes by the area to get a close-up, maybe even try it, but he wasn't around.

Several years ago my Dad bought some old cigar boxes at a garage sale. One of them had been torn apart but the wood looked good. It has been sitting in my basement for quite some time so I decided to use up some old violin accessories and an old neck and make it all into a cigar box fiddle. While looking around the web for ideas, I had no idea that there is such a dedicated bunch of cigar box musicians and cigar box luthiers(?) out there. Should be fun when it is all done!

Ariella singing the nursery song "Fiddle-I-Fee", with accompanying hand motions, on Aunt Janet's porch. She performed this song with her kindergarten in the 2017 Hardy School Spring Concert.
“FIDDLE, n. An instrument to tickle human ears by friction of a horse's tail on the entrails of a cat.
To Rome said Nero: "If to smoke you turn I shall not cease to fiddle while you burn." To Nero Rome replied: "Pray do your worst,
'Tis my excuse that you were fiddling first." --Orm Pludge”

This is a design from Lori Holt's 'Quilty Fun' book - only much smaller (2.5" x 3"). Fiddly but good fun. I added some stem stitching and French knots. Find out more about the Patchsmith's Block-a-Day.

A fiddle made by my father...
Fiddle making has been in the family as my grandfather made the fiddles that both my dad and my uncle played all their lives. He made my dads the year he was born (1922) and then my uncles John`s the year he was born (1931)
My dad made the fiddle above, a copy of a Stradivarius Faciebat Anno, 16 years ago (started in 1998, finished in 1999) and not long after he finished it, he passed away. He played the fiddle several times before he became ill... he was very proud of it, it has a really rich, lovely tone to it. He left it to me and his own fiddle (the one made for him by his father) to my brother. I guess I`d better learn to play it now...
