It’s easier than you might think to make photo patterns
In Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Fall 2013 (Issue 52), our art director, Jon Deck, offers an updated version of Gary Browning’s classic instructions for making portrait-style scroll saw patterns from photos. The article demonstrates how to use GIMP, a free photo-editing software. Complete instructions for using GIMP or Photoshop can be downloaded below.
For more information on Photoshop, visit www.Adobe.com. For more information or to download GIMP, visit www.GIMP.org.
