Here’s a little kiln carving pattern that will help you remember how lucky you are! I like March, it finally feels like there is an end to winter in sight.

Step 1:
After printing, cut a piece of fiber paper large enough to accommodate the entire pattern and pin the pattern and the fiber paper to a cut proof surface. (I use cardboard)
Step 2:
Using a sharp razor blade, carefully cut out on the black lines and remove all gray areas. I find it easier to cut the paper first, peel it out, and then cut the fiber paper.
Step 3:
After removing all the gray areas and underlying fiber paper, discard the paper pattern (or use it as a template for a different project). Place the fiber pattern under a clean large bottle bottom and fire to a full fuse.
Step 4:
Drill a hole for hanging, or slump into a small dish for spare change!
