Travis Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 May is a month for Mom, because she deserves more than just a day. This month's challenge is to make something for Mom. This can be for your mom, wife, or special lady in your life. If none of these apply, how about some May flowers? Post your project below. It'll be fun to see what you come up with.

RabidAlien Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 My shop is shut down while transitioning to a new city (moving from the Dallas area to the Austin area, for work....anyone know a good neighborhood with good homes for crazy-low prices in the Round Rock/Leander/Cedar Park area?). Here's a couple I made for my wife a while back, long before I discovered SSV. Yeah, they should be on a backing and framed, but she likes them, so...

The rose is an interesting pattern that I do believe I have seen before. A backer board on the rose might take away some of it's delict look, in my opinion. I probably would have made a backer board for it, if I was cutting it, but I think is looks better without one Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GPscroller Posted May 7, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Here is my contribution. Designed by Ken Keyes as a Mother's Day pattern but I think it will become my baby gift from now on. The second one was a free pattern from Sheila Landry I did last year for Jan, reclaimed maple of course.

Rob Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 I cut one of these the other day and sold it so here it is again, hopefully this will sell too at my next market on Mother's Day. Pattern is by Steve Good but I decided to omit the little bird this time. Rob meflick, wombatie, heppnerguy and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the added black parts, it really helps to make it stand out better. Looks like the backer board stain worked out well.

crupiea Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 My piece for this mothers day really is not anything special but its the first time I have actually drawn the artwork myself. Just a crude flower but still its a start being able to draw my own stuff and not have to rely on anything or anyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
