Canada 150 Celebration Scroll Saw Patterns.

http://www.stevedgood.com/estore/estore.html
Canada is celebrating their 150th anniversary of confederation.  This pattern book has three patterns to commemorate this historic event. The citizens of Canada have every right to be proud of one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Canada is rated in most lists as one of the top five countries in the world to live.

Essentials like health care, cost of living, education, multiculturalism and more, frequently rate as some of the best in the world. I know from personal experience that the people of Canada are some of the most friendly people in the world. I get hundreds of email from Canadians every year. Even when they want to tell me I screwed something up they try to make sure I know it's not personal. 

Canada is also always there for the international community helping out in natural disasters and encouraging dialog in times of crisis.

Thank you Canada. Congratulation on 150.        
I know I will get email asking me to do patterns for other well deserving special occasions. I am happy to try. If you want to pass along information about such an event I will research it and see what I can do. No guarantees but I will look at them. Never hurts to ask.

On National Flag Day, Americans show respect for the U.S. Flag and what it represents.  Representing independence and unity, the Stars and Stripes have become a powerful symbol of Americanism and is flown proudly. (www.nationaldaycalendar.com)
