Transformed $3 thrift store wood

[Charlie E]

One of the great parts of our hobby is turning trash to art. This piece of oak had an ugly yellow sign painted on it and was about 8” longer with a big crack in one end. Made the perfect piece for one of my favorite patterns to cut.

Really nice Charley!  Love the pattern, love what you did with it.  

Sometimes there is a great piece of wood buried inside that scrap, hidden under the paint.

It touches the heart.  Where does one find this pattern.
