Cross for my Grandson

[keefie]

My Grandson passed away 4 weeks ago, so I made four of these crosses for the family members as keepsakes.  It's made from Baltic birch ply and finished with BLO/thinners then a coat of Lacquer after.

To echo Dave, I am truly sorry for the loss, but I think the cross is a work of beauty.

Great work!  I've done that one  before but how did you put the name in the middle?  I'd like to try it.

Hi Dan, I imported the pattern into CorelDraw, then used the eraser to remove the centre of the cross then just added the name and stretched it to size.  If you have trouble doing it let me know and I can either put a name in for you or send you the modified cross with the centre removed.

Keith.
