Zorro1958 Posted January 11, 2014 Report Posted January 11, 2014 Hello, (and Happy New Years!) I tried to cut this young lady a while back with failure.... I zigged when I should have zagged and, cut a huge portion out - ruining it. The "mom" didn't care for the picture that was used, so I am starting over. This is part of a family set, actually, the last of 5 girls. We are headed to Florida the 1st week of February, so I am hoping to get it done by then. (yes - I am very s l o w at this, still... LOL) Whichever of the 3 photo's is great... whatever one that will make the best pattern. if none of them will work well, I will request more pictures from the parents. For a mixture of reasons, it's been a while since I have cut anything... Really looking forwards to it. Oh yeah, it will be cut to fit an 8 x 10 photo frame. Thank you in advance. You are an awesome group. Quote

Forester Posted January 12, 2014 Report Posted January 12, 2014 What program do you use to make these from photos please. Quote
Zorro1958 Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Posted January 13, 2014 Thank everyone so much... If they can't get me a better picture, I think I will be taking the camera and having a photo session while in Florida....... That will be cool though - I used to enjoy photography a lot (though I have lesser equipment these days),..... I still have a 14 mp diital camera that has worked nicely in the past. Quote
multitom Posted January 13, 2014 Report Posted January 13, 2014 What program do you use to make these from photos please. We have excellent tutorials by Travis on pattern making in the article section. I learnt a lot from those. I hope this helps. Mahendra Quote
frankorona Posted January 13, 2014 Report Posted January 13, 2014 Beautiful patterns thanks guys for your help. Quote
Phantom Scroller Posted January 13, 2014 Report Posted January 13, 2014 Ed I use Photoshop and Inkscape and as Mahendra said Travis has help on pattern making and there's loads on Youtube as well. Roly Quote
