Baptismal Cross
« on: July 01, 2012, 06:43:18 pm »
Had a friend of mine ask me if I could do a cross for a baptism. I remembered that the child liked butterflies, so I put together this simple cross with some butterflies thrown in. I use the Dolf font for the text and the lettering which were cut out. Didn't work too bad. The cross is about 10" tall and cut from 1/2" cherry for the cross and 3/4" walnut for the base. The base was just sort of improvised. I have the pattern with the name and without the name on my website on the free page, if you'd like to cut it. All you have to do is add the name in a font of your choice. I've also included the pattern for the base.
