Here is a cross that I cut out of the current Woodworks magazine.

Only been cutting since the 1st of April.

Thanks Chris. I think sometimes I critique myself to hard.

We all do. As a matter of fact I just had that same conversation with my dad. He gave scrolling a shot and then he stopped in part because he was being so hard on himself. I found one of his peices and was actually impressed with it and told him as much. I told him I could also rip apart the peice because I knew what the original pattern looked like (I made it). Then I had to tell him that the people he gives or seels his work to wont know what "mistakes" or should I say creative ventures, he made. They will only see the beauty of the work. Something I need to remind myself of every now and again.

That's an excellent cutting. Don't sell yourself short. We all make mistakes your artistic ability is how well you hide it! LOL

Michael, welcome to the village, and thank you for sharing this beauty with us. From the look of the cutting, one would never guess that you've only been cutting for such a short time. Great work keep it up.

Michael that is beautiful. You said that you had only been scrolling since April, was that just the cross or all together? If thats all together the rest of us should maybe retire now, well done.
