I thought some others were going to attempt it, but i think they must've given up. Just in case anyone else might be interested in this pattern, here is the original pattern request and the pattern i made to help. https://www.scrollsawvillage.com/forums/topic/31960-looking-for-christmas-reindeer-pattern/#comments It was a lot of work, if anyone wants the pattern, PM me.

meflick Posted December 24, 2019 Report Share Posted December 24, 2019 Russell - thank you for all the work you did to craft this pattern. I watched its development last year as you all progressed through it. I know it has taken a lot of time and effort on your part to create the pattern and for Don to cut and create one. He did a fabulous job with your pattern. I've added a clickable link to the discussion and pattern info. that Russell provided above: https://www.scrollsawvillage.com/forums/topic/31960-looking-for-christmas-reindeer-pattern/#comments don watson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don watson Posted December 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 @Birchbark, Many thanks Russell for that wonderful pattern. I may make another this year and follow your design a bit more closely, also a bit closer to the pictures that started it all. I took it to the Childrens Hospice and they loved it, I also took some of the toys and ornaments left from the Christmas Fayre we had at the Mens Shed and left them to be distributed among the kids. Thanks Again. @meflick, Thanks for the link I will probably make another this year if the members of the 'Shed' feel they can find somewhere that would appreciate it, maybe an old folks home ?? Thanks again to everyone that commented, and a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year to you All.
