I really like this title. Better represents what the pattern is, IMHO.
Can't wait for the pattern to be ready. Will you be selling on the board?

However for a commercial venture you might get a better result from the public if the cover showed open eyes and a smile. Your work is lovely as it is--this is just a thought about what sells.

Yeah, people are kinda drawn to eyes and smile. Hmmm... which pic could I use? Gotta think.

What about this one that I plan to include?

It is anything you want it to be.

Here are some other things I have done with this technique:

It could be a landscape, or baby pic, or of your puppy.

Of course I will sell on the board - you all are ALWAYS so helpful! I will post a note at the end of this thread directing you to the Classifieds once it is ready.

if you want to be sure you see the post, PM me and I will add you to a list of people to notify thru PM when it is done.

Wow, I really gotta get busy and get it all done! :thumbup:
