OMG! I made a pattern!
« on: January 10, 2013, 04:20:28 pm »
I received a very nice carved Irish Trinity Knot plaque from my cousin after his trip to Ireland.
My lady friend said I should make one for her on the scrollsaw.
I couldn't find a suitable pattern so I searched for images and lo and behold I found the exact replica and in 5 minutes converted it into a cutable pattern!

There is hope for this ol' guy yet!!!

Way to go GB.  I can see that sitting on a table with some feet on it holding a hot bowl.

That's a really great pattern!  I sure like to try it myself some time, with your OK.

Nice one GB, I pinched a copy too as my son lives in Northern Ireland so I'll make him a smaller set as coasters.

Have at it folks!

I just kept looking at the black on white image and finally saw that it could be easily cut.
So I went to paint.net and filled in the green!

Yes Marge, it is. But I sent him that Irish Blessing last year (picture attatched) and he loves it and wants more, everyone that sees it wants one so I tell him to get me orders for them, but he says it's unique to him and it will stay that way lol
