This pattern is by DonR, Don Robinson, and purchased from his site.  I used 1/4" Baltic Birch plywood, 11" x 14" and backed with black mat board.  I enlarged the pattern by 20% and even at that size it was fragile.  To protect it, I used plastic Acrylic when framing.  For cutting, I used FD New Spiral #3/0.  This is the first time I used this size and I really like them.  The finish is one coat of sanding sealer and two coats of spray shellac.  Of course, I framed it at ArtCrafters.  Comments welcome.

Thanks Steve.  It takes old timers to recognize them.  A women in her fifties had no idea.

 

Well, I'm in the same boat on both counts.  ;)  :?  

 

However, that said, I did look it up!  ;)  :)   Excellent work on the pattern by Don and Denny in the cutting and the framing. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Melanie.  I asked many customers ad very few remember these characters.  It is a memory maker for us old guys.

I know them both individually even though I never saw Hoppy in anything but I have seen Gabby in lots of movies.

You did an absolute amazing job on this one Denny, well done.
