heppnerguy Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 I saw this newer pattern that Alex Fox made and thought it would make a nice piece to give my wife for her 75th birthday on Monday. Well, I did not have any 1/8th in material on hand and thought I would try it with 1/4 inch but it did not really work out as well as I had hoped. I will still give it to her as part of her birthday gifts but I plan to make another soon and replace it. I found that is was a rather easy one to cut, although I did not do so well with it, but I think someone that is pretty new at scrolling could handle it just fine. It looks way more difficult then it is to do. You can also see that I varied the display a little to give the butterfly more contast/ Dick heppnerguy RabidAlien, GPscroller, jollyred and 6 others 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexfox Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Looks great! Good idea with contrast. And I agree - it looks difficult but it easy to cut. Edited August 4, 2018 by alexfox heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Dick, I think you really did a nice job with this. I am glad you used some contrasting wood also. I have been watching these patterns and thinking they might look even better with come contrasting wood involved. I really like the look you came up with. heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
