flarud Posted July 27, 2020 Report Posted July 27, 2020 A co-worker asked if I could make her a cutout of her family's Coat of Arms. I don't know much about Coat of Arms and Family Crests and such, just from what I have Googled. But nevertheless, I would like to try to make it for her if someone would be kind enough to give the pattern a try. She sent me a few pics but this one caught my eye. Thanks in advance for patterns that may be made. Barry Quote
Foxfold Posted July 27, 2020 Report Posted July 27, 2020 I can't do 'patterns' I don't have the knowledge, but you could do that with a Router, it would come out great. Quote

Be brave, branch out, you may enjoy it. If I can do it believe me, anyone can . But thank you anyway for the compliment. x Quote
Dutchscroller Posted July 28, 2020 Report Posted July 28, 2020 dont know if this helps. maybe you can do it in layers???? frankorona, John B and spirithorse 3 Quote
Birchbark Posted July 28, 2020 Report Posted July 28, 2020 (edited) I also gave this one a try. I know you've cut my patterns in the past, but this one is gonna take some serious skillz. I wish you luck if you do decide to try this one. I hope you get more choices. As always, a picture of the finished project would be appreciated.

spirithorse Posted July 29, 2020 Report Posted July 29, 2020 Great work @Dutchscroller and @Birchbark When I saw the request, my mind immediately went to an Intarsia pattern. Barry, if you think you want to try an intarsia pattern, I could separate the sections for you to make this in that style. In all actuality, the embellishments with the helmet and feathers are NOT a part of the crest or coat of arms. I think those are typically referred to as supporters and I will include those if you request an intarsia pattern. Also, you can purchase a Heraldic Coat of Arms pattern very cheaply here https://www.scrollsaw.com/products/heraldic-family-plate-intarsia-pattern If the link gives too many results, just go to www.scrollsaw.com and look through the intarsia patterns section.

I'm thinking... cut out the black and have a backer with painted sections maybe? Hmmmmm Quote

God Bless! Spirithorse I would love to do it in intarsia,, but I would also love to know how to do intarsia! I haven't tried it yet. Funny coincidence though,, My wife and I are meeting some friends from Kentucky in Savannah, GA in a couple of weeks for my 50th birthday. I think I have my wife talked into going up a bit early and head into Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Sevierille and stop in at JGR's shop. Been all over that area many times and have never stopped at her place. I appreciate your offer, but don't waste your time..... for now. Quote
spirithorse Posted July 31, 2020 Report Posted July 31, 2020 Good enough! I hope you do get to visit Judy's studio. Enjoy your vacation! God Bless! Spirithorse Quote
