The Double Basket pattern will be a challenge. There are close to 230 interior cuts, and some of the cuts will leave thin sections. Go slow and cut carefully, and you should be fine. Remember that glue is your friend.
The Butterfly pattern is just a single layer of 1/4" thick wood. I am showing a light red wash on the illustration piece. The nice thing about Butterflies and flowers is that you can use any color you like for the wash. If you are a skilled painter, then just go to town and make it beautiful.
