You got it... No See-Ums. Several carvers do them, I do some Christmas ornaments that are no-seeums. I believe Don Mertz at his blog has some, Big Dave I think done some in his gallery.

Marianne...

Send me your regular email address and I'll send you what I made and what I made the pattern from. It may not be what you are looking for now but it's a neat little project.

Eddy
