Hi there, I've only been cutting baby names between caring for my mom and traveling. I plan on doing a lot more after the new year. This is the busiest time of the year for everyone. I just want to enjoy Thanksgiving, Christmas and my husband's birthday and my birthday without rushing a project. On another note, have you downloaded Silhouette yet?

@@Mytoya2 Yes, I have downloaded Silhouette on my new computer! I'm anxious to try it and will refer back to some of your video tutorials when I get ready. You are so right about this being such a busy time of year for everyone. That's a wise choice for you to spend time enjoying the wonders of the holiday season and special events coming up in your family. Happy Birthday to you and your husband!!! You can hit the ground running after the first of the year when you won't feel as rushed. That will make your projects a lot more enjoyable. 🎄

@SawdustmakerLori are you on Facebook? If so find me. Mytoya Pritchett

@@Mytoya2 I'm not on any social media. 🙁 I'm probably the only one left in the world! Can't keep my head above water as it is with emails, texts and everything else I have going on. I'd love to join but am sure it would cause me to spend countless more hours on the computer.......maybe some day!!!

I understand. ​@@SawdustmakerLori

Hi friend, there are a few reasons why I use the blue painters tape. 1. Tape helps to lubricate the blade. It will stop you from having burn marks on your wood because of the reciprocation of your blade 2. The tape protects your wood from spray glue or whatever kind of glue you use to put your pattern down. 3. The tape makes your blade last longer. Some people use contact paper but I like the blue painters tape better. I hope that helped. 😊

Thank you!❤

😂😅 ❤ Thank you for your kind words!

Thank you! ☺️

@@SawdustmakerLori find me on Facebook under Mytoya Pritchett. We can use messenger and I can show you how to use the program.

Thank you! I will try to post more often. What kind of scrollsaw do you have?

Hey there, have you been working on anything?

I will try to post more often. 🤗

@@Mytoya2 I do all kinds of woodworking but like you, scroll saw work is my favorite! I'm getting ready to make a bunch of characters from "People & Pets" by Jean-Bernard Germe to give to staff at the AZ Humane Society. He just put out another booklet in July too that has more involved pieces but these are super easy. They don't even have any interior cuts and are really cute. I'm going to mount each on an oval base and will probably modify the characters a little. If you look on places like Etsy, they are really popular. I'm also going to do some routered signs, compound cut ornaments, wine bottle stoppers, leash holders, etc. All these will be for Christmas gifts.

@@SawdustmakerLori I didn't know there was another pattern book in July. I need to take a look at it. I'm working on Christmas gifts as well. On another note, I might be in Chandler sometime in November.

@@Mytoya2 Here's the name of the new booklet he put out in July: Easy-To-Make Wooden People & Pets with Personality: 31 Beautiful, Simple Patterns for the Scroll Saw by Jean-Bernard Germe. Oh, that will be nice if you can come in November. It surely will be cool by then!

I am glad you were able to download the program. Friend me on Facebook. I am Mytoya Pritchett. I will walk you through how to use the program privately. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thank you friend!🤗

@@moisesramos4025 Hi there, I use a free program called silhouette. You can find it at silhouetteamerica.com/programs if I'm not mistaken. I downloaded the program so long ago. Also, look through my videos. I think I have three or four videos of me using the silhouette program to make a pattern. 🤗

@@Mytoya2 Thanks

@@JuanRodriguez-mt3tz Thank you! I will try not to take such a long break. 🤗 Are you working on anything right now?

@@Mytoya2 I am cutting pets and figures with my scroll saw. Also cutting some band saw boxes. Having a good and relaxing time!

@@JuanRodriguez-mt3tz 🤗 well enjoy! It really is relaxing.

@@kzookid2051 🤗 It really is a blessing to find something you love and otherwise that share it with.

@@DavidBoston-rx2yi yes. Look up silhouette software. It should be somewhere on the silhouette.com site. You want the free version. I'm not sure what version that is now.

@@Theheartfeltinspiration Thank you friend!🤗

@@robsmith3200 Mytoya Pritchett 🤗

Is the program you use Silhouette Cameo? I cannot find this on their website

I'm not sure. I think I have version 2.3. I never ever upgraded it. Are you on Facebook or Instagram? If so, please contact me on one of those apps so we can chat a little more. I'm also willing to help you navigate the program.

@@rolandhernandez2836 Thank you!🤗

Thank you so much! 🩷

@@TheDwilliams1000 hi there, I used to silhouette Cameo program. I have a couple of videos that show you how to do simple things with the program. The program is free. I repeat free! You do not have to have a cutter in order to use the program. It is really easy to use. If you have any issues after you've downloaded it, please feel free to contact me on any of my social media platforms. Good luck!!

@@robsmith3200 Hi there, no bother at all. Happy to help! I will post a video tomorrow of a name I cut and at the end I will show you how to get the butterfly onto your pattern. 🩷

@@Mytoya2 sensational. Apprecited

@@robsmith3200 Hi there, I haven't forgotten about you. Look for the video tomorrow afternoon. Sorry for the delay.

@@robsmith3200 Hi there, I use a program called Silhouette. It is free. It's the program that's usually used with the silhouette Cameo cutter. You do not need a cutter in order to download and use the program though. There's a video on my page where I show how to use the program to make the word or name Sabina.

@@Mytoya2 , thank you. Very much appreciated. Rob. Australia

@@Mytoya2 Really appreciated. Thank you

@@robsmith3200 You're welcome friend! 🤗

@@robsmith3200 Thank you! 🤗

@@CALLSIGNSAWDUST Hi there, welcome to this scroll saw world! What kind of School saw are you using? What size blade? And how fast is your speed going? I need a little more info to answer your question.

Practice spinning in a circle on a scrap piece of wood.

@@wolfitgood Thank you for watching! How long have you been scrolling? And what saw do you have?

Thank you for reaching out Lori! I really appreciate you!🩷 Life just got a little busy. I plan on making more videos real soon. I'm working on a horse trailer. I want it to be my mobile woodshop. I've also been decorating lots of cupcakes and mini cake. As soon a the weather permits I will get outside to work on things. It's been 119 degrees almost everyday.

@@Mytoya2 So great to hear you're doing well! Sounds like you've been busy with a lot of creative projects. That's very exciting news about converting the horse trailer to a mobile woodshop. What a fantastic idea! It's been brutally hot here too. I can't wait for cooler temps to start working in the shop again. I'm using this time to create patterns and order supplies so I'll be ready to go. Stay well and try to keep cool. Best wishes!!!

@@SawdustmakerLori Thank you!🩷

Thank you so much!

Hi there, I am using a DeWalt 788 scrollsaw. Yes, I printed my pattern with a regular printer. If I have a Large design, I print one part of the pattern then move it over and print the other part of the pattern. You'll see in one of my other videos I take the patterns and hold them up to the sliding glass patio door and use it as a light box while I tape the pages together. I am not very techy. I love love love the silhouette program. I started out using coreldraw but when I found out how easy silhouette was, I stopped using coreldraw. I never upgraded. I am still using just the basic silhouette program.

@@Mytoya2 Awesome, thank you! What font is that in this video? I love it! I appreciate you getting back to me. New sub here! I can learn a lot from your videos.

So sorry! I'm not sure. I made that video so long ago. I will make sure to include the name of the fonts when I create patterns.

Thank you🤗

When I first started scrolling I did the loop but as the years have gone by I have more control when doing it lol I've shown in this video. It's just like driving in the beginning. You follow every single rule but after years You find your own way.

Welcome to the scrollsaw world $Thank you so much for your kind comment! 🥰 Feel free to contact me if you have questions. You can find me on Instagram under mytoyaNcalifornia.

You're welcome! 🤗

Hi there, I use a free program called silhouette. You can find it at silhouetteamerica.com as far as I know the program is still free. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you

You can make all kinds of beautiful things with a scroll saw. What saw do you have right now and are you actually working on any projects?

I will try to do that right now

Thank you!

Hi there this is a #5 flying Dutchman scroll reverse.

@@Mytoya2 It is very nice for women to engage in art in this way. Thank you. Greetings from Turkey, love.

No. I made them with the free Silhouette program I speak about on 2 of my other videos. If you find me on Instagram or Facebook I can make patterns for the 2 names and send them to you via messenger or in the Instagram direct messages. 🤗

I make my own name patterns using a free program called silhouette. I think you can get the program at silhouetteamerica.com

Hi friend, Thank you for your kind comments! what kind of things are you making? I love doing fretwork. I've been scrolling since the year 2000. I've always made things that people ask for. As of this year I will no longer do custom orders. I'm going to go back to doing intricate scrolling which makes me happy. I'd love to see some of your work. I'm also on Instagram tiktok and Facebook. I will be posting again soon. Right now I'm working on a horse trailer. I'm trying to convert it into my mobile wood shop.

Hi there, the program I use is a free program. I think you can get it at silhouetteamerica.com As for the patterns until you learn how to use the program. If you want I can make you a pattern for free. Just find me on Facebook. Make sure to send me a message to let me know that you are scroll saw friend. My name on Facebook is Mytoya Pritchett

Hi there, I used a free program named Silhouette to make the pattern. I have a few videos on this TH-cam page explaining more about it and how to use it. I then print the pattern off , attach it to my wood and cut.

Thank you so much! 🙏🏾 What are your favorite things to scroll? I love doing fretwork.

I made a lot of jigsaw puzzles for the grandkids and friends. I don't have much interest in working with wood now tho.

@@stephendickinson9929 I understand. 🙏🏾

Thank you for your kind comment! What's your favorite out of all the things you've scrolled? I love doing fretwork.🥰

@@Mytoya2 I use my scroll saw to create names for my jewelry boxes. I'm learning that there are other uses for this tool as well.
