  1. This is a special pattern as it is one of JGR first patterns. As you probably know, she passed a few months ago. Dick heppnerguy
  2. what a great project. Dick heppnerguy
  3. I am sure this will be with them for a long, long time to come. A true cherished piece Dick heppnerguy
  4. I am amazed at how well you cut this, again for a first cut and the use of a #7 blade to do it, Dick heppnerguy
  5. I too always enjoy your projects as I also do this one. Unlike Scrappile, I sort of like the one you copied from as to me it looks like she is standing on the ocean beach during a stormy evening. Just my opinion as to the differences. Dick heppnerguy
  6. outstanding. Not sure how you can do it with a hand held saw but you certainly have it figured out. This project stands out so much Dick heppnerguy
  7. I have looked at this pattern so many times thinking that it was going to be the next one I cut and then it seems I don't run across it at those times so it is still in my 'to do' list. Nicely done and also an inspiration for my to try and remember it next trip to the shop Dick heppnerguy
  8. another amazing and interesting project. You always amaze me with your new pattern pieces Dick heppnerguy
  9. He will be remembered by even new members now, with this nicely made sign. Sorry for you loosing your friend. It seems to happen too much as we ourselves get older. Dick heppnerguy
  10. Congratulations to both of you. You both choose well. A little story for you. When my wife was 13 years old, I met her when she rode over to my house in a friends newly purchased car to show the car to me. My, now wife, had an ambition to become a nun at that time. She told me a couple of years later, when she saw me jump off my parents front porch to see the car, that at that moment she said to herself, "that is the man I am going to marry." Five years later we wed. Dick heppnerguy
  11. So happy for you both. So many marriages now days seem to be a trial thing instead of a commitment. Dick heppnerguy
  12. So sorry to hear about your wife passing. It is something I have high gratitude that my wife and I are still together after all these years. I thank God for that and tell my wife that also every night when we crawl into bed. Dick heppnerguy
  13. Happy wife, Happy life. There are only two ways to argue with a woman and none of them work. Dick
  14. This is a Sue Mey pattern I ran across in my patterns as I was looking for something to cut for my dear wife. I cut is from 1/8 inch BB Ply using a #1 Pegas spiral blade. I then painted it and made a backer board using 1/4 BB ply. I used Deft semi gloss spray finish. One of the only things I painted and was happy with it. It looks way better than it does in the photo. I took it in the evening front room light. Dick heppnerguy
  15. Oh how precious. Perfect idea Dick heppnerguy
