Popular Post Stretch Posted November 9, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 I made these two wreaths and donated them. The pattern came from Sheila Landy Designs (Keith). One will be a part of a school's Remembrance Day ceremony and the other went to a family that has veterans who fought in Afghanistan. I consider myself a beginner and I find smallish text to be very challenging but overall pleased with the result. I think I will make the Remembrance Day gifting an annual thing.

Dak0ta52 Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Letters are a challenge even for experienced scrollers, Brian. But it is rewarding to finish a piece with nice, straight letters with no drop outs. You did an excellent job. The paint gives the pieces an extra pop.

jerry walters Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Brian, those look great. I remember my dad wearing those poppys. People were on the streets of our town handing them out. I was young and I didn't know what they were for. I just remember my dad seemed to wear them with pride and I thought they looked very neat. I'm certain yours will be very much appreciated.

Stretch Posted November 11, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 Thanks for all the kind remarks, I don't know any other scrollers near me so I have no feedback and very little to compare my work to. I tend to be my own worst critic. When I look at something I have completed, I have to remind myself that very few people look at something trying to spot flaws (although I know some people like that !!). It is natural though, when you are also a scroller, to look for details that many people might not even notice. barb.j.enders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry walters Posted November 11, 2023 Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 You and I are in the same boat. I don't know any other scrollers, that is why I'm so happy to be on SSV. Lots of help lots of information. Where did you get the Pattern? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
