I have been busy lately on this Kathy Wise pattern for a friend. I have the fronts cut, shaped and sanded ready to be stained.
Next step is cutting the backs in the same manner and creating a 3d sculpture type set of standing figures.

No, it was included in the sheet of projects given with Scrollsaw Woodworking and Crafts, winter 2016.
A chap on another forum asked for help to finish it and I volunteered. His Uncle had started the project but had died and his Aunt wanted it as a keepsake. He sent me what he had and I have carried on with it. I hope to finish it soon.
Started cutting the backs of the pieces today and it is going to be a long haul.

take care

PS I think Kathy Wise has done a collection like this, #337 is the Nativity and #333 is the Shepherd and 2 sheep. I am cutting in Tulipwood and loving it.

I will have to take a look for a copy of the magazine. I use Tulip wood quite a bit for the models i make hold a edge nicely and cuts easy as well as easy to carve
