The pattern was prompted by an email from a reader. She works in a facility where there is one bathroom for all the employees. Needless to say she is not thrilled with the cleanliness of the shared bathroom. Her boss told her to put up a sign. Her, being a scrollers thought a nice sign might have more impact. That's where the email to me came in.
I was going to throw together a quick pattern just for her. My first couple of attempts were a little sophomoric. I cleaned it up a little(pun intended) and decided to post it. I know it has limited appeal for most scrollers but that is something I can do that I could not do if I were selling patterns.
