Valentines Day Heart Jigsaw Puzzle.



What better way to tell your sweetheart you love them on Valentines Day than a hand made jigsaw puzzle? This little "I Love You" heart jigsaw puzzle is only 5" X 5".

These are super easy to make using my template system. Complete instructions are included in the pattern book.


You need the included picture printed on high-quality photo paper. A print out of the puzzle template and two sheets of Baltic birch plywood. I highly recommend only Baltic birch plywood for this project. You will need a thin kerf scroll saw blade like a #2/0. spray adhesive and blue painters tape.


You will make a sandwich of the boards with the picture in the middle and the template on the top.


Cut out all the pieces by following the template and you have a nice jigsaw puzzle for your sweetheart.

If you enjoy this technique, I have a complete set of templates available in all standard photo sizes in my eStore. You can make puzzles out of your special memory photographs.


2007-2018 Scrollsaw Workshop Catalog DVD Now Available. $20

$20 plus shipping

For those of you who have been waiting for the update, it is now available to order.

For those of you who are new here are the details. 

Every year in January I compile all the scroll saw patterns that I have designed and put them on a DVD. The DVD includes every pattern from 2007-present. Currently, that is over 2,600 patterns.

Why should you buy the DVD? These are the same patterns that are in my free online catalog. You do not have to buy the DVD to have access to the patterns.

The DVD is produced because so many people asked for it. People want to have the patterns available locally. In some cases, they want the patterns for their club library. Others like the ease of searching the patterns on their local computer. Many people buy the DVD just to support what I do.

The #1 reason I have been told that the DVD catalog is needed is that they fear I will go offline and all the pattern will be gone forever. 

Whatever your reason I truly appreciate you purchasing the DVD. The sales from this product go a long way to support what I do here on the blog.
