A fun new Hobby!

My sweet husband is always encouraging me to develop my hobbies, or find new ones. He loves working with wood, and suggested that I try learning how to use a scroll saw. It feels a lot like a sewing machine, and in case you are intimidated by power tools like I am, this one is pretty safe, and fairly easy to handle.
Here is a photo of my first scroll saw projects.

I'm particularly proud of snoopy, since that is my first, mostly original project, and I learned how to do some wood burning along the way too. The other patterns came from various sources on-line, mainly http://scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.ca/2011/11/five-simple-christmas-ornament-scroll.html, I love that website, it offers a number of free, and simple patterns to use.
