Basic Intarsia: With Lucille Crabtree by Leslie Bockol
Intarsia is a craft of precision and artistry. A picture is created by cutting out and then fitting together many pieces of differently colored and textured woods, much like a jigsaw puzzle. These pieces are then rounded and shaped individually, to create realistic contours and lend a three-dimensional effect. When the pieces are varnished, fitted together, and glued onto a backboard, they make a beautifully polished, professional-looking piece. Step-by-step, this book shows you how to make an intarsia teddy bear wall hanging, perfect for a child's bedroom. The project is ideal for someone just starting to learn the art of intarsia, teaching basic techniques (from selecting your wood to hanging your finished piece) and showing how to deal with common difficulties and pitfalls. Also included are patterns for a girl teddy bear and a dinosaur.

Country Mosaics for Scrollers and Crafters: 33 Patterns for Hex Signs, House Blessings and More by Frank Droege,
Bless your friends, neighbors and even your own home with these wooden plaques symbolizing faith, love, and prosperity! The country-themed patterns in this book were inspired by the Pennsylvania German traditions that are so prominent in the countryside around the author's home. Their symbols of peace, long life and prosperity can be seen on the hex signs that hang on their barns, on the house blessings that grace their homes, and on the quilts and furniture that they use and sell. Noting the clean lines and bright colors of these designs, the author has translated these symbols into attractive patterns for a variety of crafts. Many of the symbols have unique meanings, which, when combined, create a special message for the owner. Use these patterns for many crafts including scroll sawing, needlepoint, stained glass, quilting, rug hooking and more. Once finished, the resulting pieces become excellent gifts and beautiful keepsakes
