RangerJay Posted February 5, 2016 Report Posted February 5, 2016 Unfortunately I got taken away from the scroll saw last fall just as I was starting Christmas Ornaments and didn't really have any genuine opportunity to get back to it till just a week or so ago - meaning - of course - that my ornament production took a heck of a beating .... Just finished these up - they are only fraction of what I had intended to do ..... but if I look at it positively then I have a good start on next year ..... This sample of angels and stockings are from patterns by Sheila Landry. The Santa's are from Sue Mey. I like small ornaments so these have been shrunk down considerably from the original pattern sizes - I forget exactly how much but think in the neighbourhood of 40 - 50% of the original size. All the internal fretwork is with a #1 FD spiral with flat ends. Comments welcome. Thanks, Jay Scrappile, tomsteve and Lucky2 3 Quote

Gordster Posted February 6, 2016 Report Posted February 6, 2016 Some nice scrolling Jay...never too late for xmas, I just got an order for four bells. Quote
Lucky2 Posted February 6, 2016 Report Posted February 6, 2016 Jay, those are very nice looking ornaments, I downsize the ones I cut about the same amount as you do. I find that if I cut them the size they're presented, makes them to large for the tree. Len Quote
wombatie Posted February 6, 2016 Report Posted February 6, 2016 A fantastic start to 2016 Christmas. Impressive ornaments. Marg Quote
