I have a family photo I want to make into a pattern
« on: June 08, 2020, 06:56:07 pm »
Hi all,

I have a family photo I want made into a pattern I can cut for my Aunte as a gift. I've tried a few times converting it myself but it comes out horrible. Is anyone able to help?

Thanks,
-Dave

If you are member of Scroll Saw Village they have a good course on using GIMP.

You can also request a pattern and maybe some one can convert.  It depends on the quality of picture.

There are also services you can google too.

Hi Don,

I am requesting a pattern. That's the whole purpose of the thread. I have watched the videos and tried several times to create my own and failed, as I said. I'm not an artist. I searched Google and can't find anyplace where I can send someone a picture and get back a cut-able design. Any links would be appreciated, or if someone wants to look at the image and possibly take a crack at it let me know and I'll happily send it along. I'd post the picture but the forum rules indicated I shouldn't.

Thanks,
-Dave
