This pattern was in Sheila Landry's mid-March newsletter. Showed it to the wife and she liked it, but with some changes. She did not the flourishes at the top or the stitching down either side, just the lettering and objects in the center. No problem with me (56 less cuts by my count), gotta love her. Used salvaged laminated maple from an old dresser for the plaque.

Found this pattern on Pinterest and really liked it, decided to cut it on a plaque that I had laying around. Stuck the pattern on top of the plastic wrap, figuring it would make removing the pattern a dream. That part went well. What I did not anticipate was the pattern bouncing while cutting because it was on the plastic, not the wood Thank goodness for tape and finger nails. Lesson learned, will use Press and Seal wrap next time AFTER I remove the plastic.

Cute bunny and the purple heart is beautiful. Just wondering, what is the object behind the candle holders in the second pic, looks very interesting?

Have often wondered that myself Les. I always sign my posts with my first name, and the GPscroller was what I came up with in a hurray when first visiting SSV. Not very creative since under my avatar stated I live in Grande Prairie, I know, not one of my best moments

Welcome from Grande Prairie, Alberta, Canada. I have two Excaliburs, 21 and 16 inch. Love the 21. As mentioned above, if you can, try a couple of different ones and see which one feels right for you.
