Sambluebird Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 Hello All I seek your help to make a pattern of this little boy so that I may make a cutting for his Grandmother and Mother. This little boy was killed by his father this past spring and I would like to help the family heal by making a special scroll-sawing for them. If you can, please use your talents to make the best pattern you can with the images, I surely would appreciate. Thank you in advance for your help. Everyone on this site is truly awesome!!!

Kris Martinson Posted December 2, 2015 Report Posted December 2, 2015 Kevin, it did take quite a lot of time to make patterns from those photos. Secret weapon: the Cartoon feature in GIMP2. Then a LOT of clean-up. Worth every minute for this noble cause. Scrolling Steve 1 Quote
Sambluebird Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Posted December 2, 2015 Oh My, Thank you so very much for your patterns. They are beautiful!!!!! You all never cease to amaze me with your talents. I will post the cuttings when finished. I plan on making the frames and matting as well. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help in helping this family thru the healing process. God bless you Deborah Kris Martinson 1 Quote
Kris Martinson Posted December 3, 2015 Report Posted December 3, 2015 Deb, it was a pleasure to help you with this project. God bless you for doing this. Quote
Sambluebird Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Posted December 20, 2015 Evening All Am attaching the cutting of one of the patterns. I will be doing the other before long. When I cut the pattern, I did a stack cutting and had one for his Grandmother and his mother. I made the molding and frame as well and put a one inch mat around the portrait. I gave one to his grandmother today and she was overwhelmed and so appreciative. She will be giving the other to her daughter for Christmas. Thank you all so very much for helping me with this. God Bless you and Merry Christmas!!! Deborah Scrolling Steve 1 Quote
