Ditto, what Paul said.  And a big thanks to Brett @Oges for some Aussie patterns, love them.

Here's what 3 of my 5 will look like when cut, the other 2 can stay a surprise. 🙂

This is awesome, thank you Travis! I'll look at purchasing the previous years too

Yeah I did a Koala pattern a while back and thought the same with it being too difficult, but you just slowly do a bit at a time and before you know it, its finished.

You did really well on that Kevin, thanks for cutting it and showing me how it looks, sorry once again for such a delicate pattern.

I'm happy to announce that our Ornaments For Charity - 2021 Edition eBook is now available!
For the last 11 years, members of Scroll Saw Village have donated their talents to designing ornaments for this unique eBook of patterns.  This year, we added 11 designers to design 55 additional patterns. The book has gotten so large, we had to split it into 2 books.  Book 1 covers our first 10 years; 2010-2021.  Our newest book, Book 2, covers 2021+.  Between the two books, we have 145 pages with 445 Holiday ornament patterns!  So be sure to download both books.  
You can download the eBooks for free to check them out. If you decide to keep these amazing pattern books, we ask you to donate to your favorite charity (we're on the honor system here). Remember, this isn't about "buying" an eBook of patterns, it's about helping those in need.   So dig deep when donating to your favorite charity.
 
Please spread the word about these wonderful eBooks of patterns.  Post to your favorite social media, other clubs, and organizations.  The more people who know about it, the more money we're able to raise for worthy causes.
 
You can find those eBooks here.  There will be a tab on the navigation menu through Christmas. After Christmas, it will be moved under the Patterns tab in the navigation bar.
 
Special thanks to the following designers for donating patterns to this year's Ornaments For Charity eBook:

Hey Travis,
Would be good to get back into doing this. I will think about a design and get working on something for you

Hi All!
We're continuing our tradition here at Scroll Saw Village by publishing our annual e-Book full of Christmas ornaments. This popular e-Book was featured in the Holiday 2014 issue of Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts magazine.  Our ornament designs are exclusive to this eBook and designed by SSV members. Anyone can download the ebook in exchange for a donation to their favorite charity. Our hope is that we'd be able to raise some money for very worthy causes and provide some cool patterns at the same time.
 
*** But we need your help! ***
 
 
We need some volunteers to design some ornaments.
Each designer will provide 5 patterns (no more, no less) I ask that the designs are not made available anywhere else (this gives value to the e-book) They have to be designed specifically by you (no posting other people's patterns) Designs must be emailed (or PM) to Travis by Wednesday, November 24th (info below) A few things to keep in mind:
Religious and secular designs are accepted. Other religions/traditions also celebrate this time of year, so let's not forget them. Keep detail and size appropriate for an ornament. Don't submit copyrighted or licensed patterns. The due date will sneak up on you quicker than you think.  Please get them to me ASAP so I have time to work on them. What do you get in exchange?
Credit for your design. The warm fuzzy feeling that you're helping others in need. Submitting your ornaments:
Email the ornaments directly to Travis (travis [at] scrollsawvillage.com) or PM me. Formats accepted are JPG, PNG. Please keep the pattern in black & white only (no gray) . That way I can convert them easier when putting together the ebook. I prefer Inkscape files (SVG) if you can. This is ideal if you know how to use Inkscape. That way I don't have to  manually convert them.

So last year, we were blessed and got 8 designers to donate a total of 40 new ornament patterns.  This year, I'd like to reach 10 designers.  I know it can be done, because we've done it in the past.  How great would it be to get 50 new ornament patterns in this year's book?  The last couple of year's has been tough, so this is a great way to give back.  You don't have to be an amazing designer.  All skill levels are welcome.  The goal is to create a really cool eBook that will benefit those in need.
I'm designing.  Who's with me!?

Awesome work Lee.
I had some Sulphur Crested Cockatoos In my garden today.

Here's a recent one of me (Oct 2019) taken on top of our tallest mountain here in Australia

Lovely clean and crisp cutting
Curious about the plastic laminated BB, is it wood or plexi?
