My first 3 intarsia projects

[Bob in Whitby Member - Level 2 Find all posts View Profile Close Bob in Whitby]

The attached are the results of my winter with a scroll saw. These are my first scrolling efforts. This is also my first effort at adding attachments to a post. Hope it works.

Many of you may recognize the patterns. The Prarie and Calla Lillies hang from a backer while the Chipmunks were mounted in a background and mounted in a home made frame. All 3 hang predominately in my home. Now on to more scrolling.........

Really nicely done, Bob - no one would even guess those to be beginner efforts.
How large are they? I keep wanting to try intarsia, but the projects seem so large I'd have nowhere to display them. You've whetted my appetite again.

Great work. Where did you get the Lilly pattern? That just might work for a room in our house.

Thanks,

Sandy:
The finished size of the Prarie Lily is 12"x8" , the Calla Lily is 11"x6", the Chipmunks are 22"x13" (framed is 29"x19"). I did the Prarie Lily first. This required scrolling, wood burning and carving (with a dremel). These were very manageable and fun to do. Trusting this info helps.

I got the Lilly patterns from:

Both Lillies are in the one pattern kit.

Bob-

Those look great! I haven't tried intarsia yet (I like fretwork), but I will try it at some point.
