We have 62 days until Easter. I really believe that time is speeding up. I know that when I was 16 I had more time in the day to get things done. Now I run out of time and just cannot get everything done. Of course, the three naps I accidentally take daily could also be part of the problem.
Two patterns today. The first is a two-layer Easter Basket. It is about 9.25" tall and cut from two layers of 1/4" thick plywood.
Of course, the second pattern is two 1/4" thick layers and I was thinking about my own nap situation. I must be a professional because I wake up from naps without even remembering that I was going to take a nap. I can take an hour-long nap and never move. I can be playing with my dog on the floor, with my head resting on her treat box, and wake up an hour later with the dog nowhere to be found. No doubt about my professional standards.

Spot the Differences, Follow the rules, and Win free patterns.
There are five differences in this cartoon I made. See if you can spot them. You can click the image to enlarge it. You may need the larger image to see one of the differences. Panel 1 is the original Panel 2 has the differences.
If you want to send me your solution you need to do it like this. I need the cartoon with Xs over the area where there is a difference. You can put the image in a paint program or print it, X it, and take a photo of the cartoon. You can use any method of X that you want as long as I can see the Xs. Email me the photo and the first twenty people who get all five correct, will get both of my wooden vase pattern books for free.
You have to use this email address. I will not see it if you do not use this address.
