The Coffee Shop / Prayer request

« on: May 27, 2016, 07:54:27 pm »

Hi guys and gals, I have not been on here in a long time, but I know the kind of family you are. It's been a stressful time for us. Three weeks ago my wife was diagnosed with stomach cancer, today she had 70-80%of her stomach removed. The Dr said the surgery went as planned. She will start kymo or radiation just as soon as the surgery is healed. Please I ask that you add Mary's name to your prayer lists. We have lots of faith and firmly believe in the power of prayer. Let's send up prayers from all corners of the world to destroy this cancer that has invaded her body and for a complete and speedy recovery. Thanks in advance for your thoughts and prayers, Clyde

Hi Folks, My son will be getting married this summer and I want to cut a special piece to commemorate the occasion. As I am not very adept at designing I am wondering if you, that are so gifted, could whip together something for me. Their names are David and Cherie, They are getting married in Vegas (Wooo, Woo  ) on August 25, 2015. Feel to add any romantic touches that you think will be good.

Pattern Requests. / Need help with a pattern

« on: March 23, 2015, 08:19:13 pm »

Hi Guys and Gals it has been a while since I checked in, I have been trying to do my own patterns but this one is special. It is for a friend of mine whos pop passed away recently and she wants me to do a portrait of him. He was an avid camper and loved to play the guitar. could one of you fine pattern makers work your magic and come up with a pattern. It does not need to be like the lay out in the picture as long as the words "camping in Paradise and a guitar are incooperated. Thanks a million for any support you can give.  Even if I could get a pattern of the gentleman I would be able to add the other items later.

General Scroll Saw Talk / My latest craft show

« on: December 09, 2014, 09:35:26 pm »

Well it finally happened. I came home Saturday, after the craft fair, smiling half way  down my back.show started at 10:00am at 10:15 a lady came to our table looked once at my beach scene by JGR and said how much. Well I only took it to show it off because I did not really want to or expect to sell it so I said $400.00.( I should have said 500. $&)@&$.) Anyhow she said ok I will take that.  we sold a lot of 5.00 to 50.00 items. Later in the day a lady was looking at my key fobs. The type that have the hidden compartment. I told her you can put $ bills or tooth picks inside. She has a sewing group and thought they would be great for storing needles in.  I had 6, she took them all at 30.00 each. What a day we had. Now I can buy some supplies😉😉😉😉

Pattern Requests. / A special request

« on: November 06, 2014, 07:18:53 pm »

As a teacher with over 25 years experience you meet a lot of very nice kids with a lot of potential and like us all we you try to influence these young people in a positive way. Last year one of the students at our school reached out to me. He knew I did scrollsaw work and he had a keen interest in trying it out. We had a number of sessions in our fabrication room playing with the school's  Delta 788. He came to me today and asked my help with getting a pattern  of Florida. His English gave the class an assignment where they could present their information in any medium they wished. He choose his new scrollsaw as his way and he choose Florida because he vacationed there when he was younger. He is looking for an outline of the state of Florida and he needs to add details like the state flower, logo if there is one, flag, recreation, hot spots etc,and anything that is Florida.  I am hoping that some of you talented pattern makers will help us out. Thanks in advance. Noah will appreciate your help. I am trying to get him to sign up as a member.

A customer wants this pattern cut from wood. It is a wood burning pattern right now and I can see some islands in it. Can any of you talented individuals rework it into a scroll pattern. Thanks
