Do a search here.  30 results for paisley, patterns to examples.

Did a search but I am not seeing much to help with my dilemma, the patterns are too busy to try carving and don't translate well into what tools I should be trying to use for the fill spent the whole day ( my work shutdown for a blizzard)messing around and maybe came up with one or two that were close to being okay.

I've been thinking about trying some paisley myself.

I was hoping to give it another go this weekend, I filtered through all that stuff and really did not find anything but looked at so much Paisley I got a few ideas to try.

I am also thinking of doing some paisley but have the same hesitations about properly filling the design.

My search didn't turn up anything on here and that link listed above doesn't work for me.

Come on folks, post pics of your work! I gave this a quick try and was reminded how much my swivel knife skills suck. :) haha.

I'm going to give it another go and I'll try to post the pics. I suggest y'all do the same. :)

I found this statement from the following tutorial helpful to me 

"What do the sport professionals do before each game of play. They practice the basics of their sport, because they know they are essential. They know that if they are to play the game well, they have to be able to do the basic things instinctively. There is just too much else to think about while playing than having to think about the basics, if they want to win. You must do the same."
