SCROLL SAW RELIEF

by Marilyn Carmin

Marilyn Carmin's relief projects, many of which you have probably seen on the covers and inside the pages of Creative Woodworks & Crafts, have taken my breath away more than once. The patterns in this new book arc certainly no exception. Marilyn's use of exotic woods, eye for detail, and obvious class as a designer shine through in this well thought out and well organized Fox Chapel publication.

Each of the over 70 full size patterns feature clear, easy to follow cut-ling lines with blade entry markings and directional arrows.

Scroll Saw Relief offers portrait quality designs in a variety of subjects including children at play, deer, orca whales, clowns, carolers, ballroom dancers, hearts, architecture, horses, eagles, ducks, Christmas scenes, ornaments, and Victorian designs to name a few. Such an enormous collection of high quality patterns presents endless decorating possibilities.

Separated into three chapters, Scroll Saw Relief provides lips, techniques, a gallery section, and patterns lor each phase of relief cutting. Each of the three chapters offers instruction, taking the reader through relief, fret, and finally, techniques in combining relief with fretwork to attain the desired effects.

The 70 plus patterns included in Scroll Saw Relief are certain to provide any scroll sawyer with an endless array of designs for every occasion. This book is more than worth the $14.95 retail price.
