That is looking good. My mother who was the seamstress in the family would have loved it. Adding some scrolling to it will only enhance it’s beauty.

Jeaheon, I’m glad you surfaced to get a breath or two. Good to see you visit us here in the village. It is always wonderful to see what your newest puzzle creation is. This whale looks great. Blessings to you for the New Year and hope you get more opportunities to stay above the surface.

I too was going to suggest Dick as one who does significant carving to scrolled pieces. Glad to see he has already replied several times. I have been learning to carve the past couple months some. I have shared some of those carved pieces on here earlier. I have been carving some Christmas ornaments the past month. Haven’t shared those yet I don’t think, I still need to paint some of them so was waiting until I had them completed. I want to learn carving in the round but haven’t gotten there yet. I did some relief carving to start, and then have been doing the smaller ornaments. I have been enjoying learning to carve and I asked for and received a Foredom to try power carving. I enjoy learning and trying new things. I also learned some basics of turning that I want to do some more learning and doing with. I think carving can enhance so many different types of work. I hope to use it with my Intarsia work (that I also need to get back to ). So, I’m always open to talking about carving with my scrolling. Edited to add: I had also asked for and received some of Pfeil’s palm size carving tools for Christmas. Most of what I had previously purchased were some of the larger Pfeil gouges and vtools for relief carving. While I was making them work with the smaller ornaments I was carving, I felt palm size tools would be more efficient for that type of work. I have done a little work with them since Christmas and they are a good size for small work.

Hello and welcome to the village from East Tn. Look forward to your participation. As noted, it depends on how the pattern designers creates the pattern. For lots of free patterns, be sure to check out the pattern library here in the village.

@BadBob the snowflakes are gone - you can come back now. I am sorry if they bother you, I was on yesterday and know they are only for the one day and find them a little festive.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

I agree it looks great.

Sounds like an awesome time all around and lots of great memories this grandchildren will always fondly remember. They did great work on their Jacks.

Glad to see you back. Sorry to hear of your health issues. I pray they are in fact behind you. Nice looking projects.

@Scrappile Paul, yes, I took it “positive” . Course, Kirk made it fairly easy when he gave the info. that he was pretty sure it was from here in the Patterns section of the village. I do try to provide links to things when people ask if for help or note they aren’t sure where it came from. I think it’s helpful when we can provide links to articles, patterns, etc. (helpful now and hopefully down the road) and it usually doesn’t take me to long to track something down but I have been “stumped” before. So, if you need help finding something, just tag me in case I don’t see it and I will do my best.

I’m so sorry to have disappointed you @Scrappile Paul. I will try to do better. Now, let me see what if anything I can find. perhaps this is it by Mike Miller, looks like uploaded in 2014 to the pattern library here, in the utilitarian pattern section. There are quite a few clock patterns there shared by Mike at the time.

Glad to hear surgery is done and you are back home.prayers for an excellent recovery and you can be back in the shop sawing in short order. Be patient and give it time to heal properly. I know that is the hard part.

Don’t we all. Well, at least some of us - me included.

@amazingkevin Kevin, so good to see you pop in and show some work. Great tip on those dollar tree wood items. Never thought about it. Nice work.

Nice work Charlie. Definitely a classic.

Those look great. Thanks for showing.

Welcome to the Village from East Tennessee. Look forward to your participation.

Definitely beautiful and insane! Glad you were the one cutting it.

Nice job and sure to please the neighbor. Sorry to hear of your need for surgery. Prayers form you and the surgical staff. Let us know how you are doing when you feel up to it.

Beautiful piece your granddaughter will love. You are the second “Grumps” I have ever heard of. My sister and her husband had their first grandchild a few years back, when trying to decide what “name” they wanted, his secretary I gather suggested “Grumps” and that is what they went with.

Beautiful pieces Paul. We have several different nativities displayed that we have obtained over the years. I have at least one simple one from Steve Good I cut and a layered one from the magazine. While I love the look of the filigree - I run from all those holes to drill and the cutting of them. I agree with you on the solid back - I think it helps the figures poppet much more the way you have it.

You are correct about Judy's shop. Amazing work throughout from years of working and doing Intarsia and patterns. I only live about 30-40 minutes away from her and have been fortunate to be able to go and take her classes - that is actually when I started - I took her beginner class to learn. You are right, segmentation is a good way to start to learn about cutting the pieces and shaping.

Looks great as usual Denny and not surprised that your customer was pleased. One of these days, I’m going to actually get around to cutting that pattern out. Hopefully I do half as nice as yours.

Excellent work, and sure to be treasured for years to come. My mother did us cross stitch ornaments every year. I love hanging them on the tree. She spent her lunch breaks at work working on them as well as in the evenings after work. Kept her busy, especially as the grands kept coming. The past couple of years since I started woodworking, I have been giving my kids and nieces and nephews ornaments I have cut. I hope they too will treasure for years after I am gone. No grands yet though of my own, but a grand niece and nephew who are both two. I do agree with Jack, would make cute earrings as well.
