I was pleased with the frame, but wish I had left more room around edge of picture so it couls be cut at a 3deg angle and picture set back in a little, I think that would have set it off a little better. I'll try that when I attempt the other pattern that was done for me. Thanks everybody for all your help.
I had to cut it using a plain end reverse tooth blade as I'm still waiting for my blades from Mikes workshop, but I think thats more to do with Christmas Post delays than anything else.

Hi Grampa, Just wanted to say Dad absolutely loved the plaque of mum,he shed a few tears then asked me to thank you for the pattern next time i was on here. So thanks Paul, from both Dad and myself for the pattern. And thank you too Joleet, I'll be doing your pattern next.

The finished peice can't have been too bad, I have requests for three more, one for my daughter and one each for my brothers. just waiting for my blades and drill bits to arrive then it's all ahead full with the next three. Thanks again everyone for the kind comments

I have just been told something about my plaque that I and no one else here noticed, I put the frame on upside down!!! the flowers on both sides are going downwards. Although when I checked it on Steves site, it was same way round as mine, so now I dont know if they are right or I was.

It looks fine Keefie. Before you do the next one, change the pattern around till it pleases you, Then cut what looks good to you!

I've already flipped the frame 180 deg, so now my flowers are growing upwards lol, it actually looks better, but till it was pointed out I hadn't even noticed
