Here is a simple pattern that you can cut for your valentine. Holidays are great for scroll sawyers. Everyone is looking for a unique gift to give. With a little scrap wood and some creativity you can make that unique gift that is one of a kind.
Here is a women's tennis plaque. I designed several sports trophies a while back. Someone asked for a tennis pattern and I never got around to it. I do keep a list of all the requests. Better late than never I guess.
Several people emailed me asking for a dog corner to match the kitten corner from an earlier post. The Kitten Corner pattern was downloaded hundreds of times. It was the second most popular pattern for this month. I hope you all like this as well.

Norm wanted to share another pattern with us. This clock is about 6" x 9". Norm has designed the clock for a 1 7/16 mini clock insert. The pattern is big enough that you could modify it a little and install up to a 2 1/2" clock insert. Thanks for sharing Norm.
From Diane:
A good friend of the Scrollsaw Workshop, Norm Benjamin has donated another pattern to share with everyone. I don't think Norm has slept much since he got his copy of Corel Draw. Norm and I have emailed back and forth while as he has come up to speed. Thanks Norm, nice pattern.
This butterfly is 11" wide. I cut the wings from 1/8" baltic birch ply. The body is 1/2" dowel rod sanded to shape. The wings are inserted into small dados drilled into the body. Drill the wing dados at an angle so the wings are in the proper orientation.
Kokopelli is a fertility deity, usually depicted as a humpbacked flute player, who has been venerated by some Native American cultures in the Southwestern United States. Like most fertility deities, Kokopelli presides over both childbirth and agriculture. He is also a trickster god and represents the spirit of music.
Okay guys, you have about a month until Valentines day. Make your lady a special wooden card. Buy her something special then give her this card. Get a gold ink marker and write how much you love her on the back. That might even keep you out of the dog house for a few days.
I love your web site. Just to get the facts straight. I'm 15 and ever since I first saw your web site all I could think about about was scroll sawing. I've watched all your videos and visit it every day for any new things. The things Ive done haven't all come from your web site but it is still scroll sawing. Well Ive only been scrolling for a week and I don't think I'm to shabby if I do say so myself.
Sergio is a frequent visitor to the Scrollsaw Workshop. He is working with Corel Draw and learning to make scroll saw patterns. He keeps me posted with pictures of some of his projects.

You can hang these playful kittens from the corner of a door or window. You could even put them on top of your computer monitor.
Here is a very simple mini clock pattern. If you are looking for a pattern that's easy to cut here it is. If you want a little more challenge I have included a compound cut pattern also.
After I posted the email from Pat the other day I had several emails. Readers were asking if Photoshop could be used instead of Corel Draw to make the ornaments. Well I asked several Photoshop gurus and they said it could not be done automatically. I spent a little time in Photoshop trying to come up with a way to do it manually. The video below shows what I came up with. It's not perfect but it's a place to start.
After I posted the email from Pat the other day I received many emails about the ornaments he made. If you would like to make these ornaments and you have Corel Draw look for the video demonstration in the archives at August 9, 2007.
Hello Steve,
Here is a portrait of a gaggle of geese. This is a common sight around the farm lands of Kentucky. I love watching these large birds come in to the ponds around here and sit down so gracefully.
