Popular Post Charlie E Posted February 28, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Probably my favorite book. A while back I thought the book cover would make a pretty good pattern. Not really what I envisioned but it turned out OK, especially since I'm a big fan. Reminds me of a quote from another favorite book.

Foxfold Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Awesome, that picket fence must have taken ages. I just love the fact that it's all in one piece. Great cutting fisch2481 and Charlie E 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meflick Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Awesome job on that Charlie. One of my favorite books too. Another, when I was younger, was "Charlotte's Web." Want to tackle that one? You clearly have more patience then Ido. I'm thinking that picket fence would not have made it to any attempts I made at the cover of that one! I loved reading, still do. I spent most of my summers as a kid going to the library at the start of the week, getting as many books as they would let me check out (and I think one librarian even let me check out extras), reading them and going back later in the week for more. Good thing that library was within walking distance. I hope I passed that love of reading onto my kids. (They loved it when they were little I know.) Thanks for sharing your great work Charlie and bringing back some fond memories. Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing your great work Charlie and bringing back some fond memories. Thanks Melanie! May have to take a look at the Charlotte's Web cover. My 22 month old granddaughter loves the movie. Her mom, my daughter did when she was little too. I do love to read. My 15 year old daughter puts me to shame though. I take her to the library often. She checks out 4-5 to my one and finishes ahead of me. I usually just read a chapter or two before bed. If I were to cut this one again I would have made the fence larger than it is on the cover. It would have been much easier and I think may have looked better. meflick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
