Default sea tutle

I had someone contact me through my etsy site interested in a special order - a sea turtle. I wasn't able to find a pattern on the web. My daughter had taken pictures of the turtle in the Chicago aquarium, so I used that to create a pattern myself. It's about 10 inches long and uses Western Red Cedar, Birdseye Maple, Lacewood, Walnut, and Aspen.

That looks very nice! I like the way you used the grain to enhance the "live" look!

G'day Theresa,
That's neat, I like it a lot.
BTW my daughter is going to take your suggestion and give etsy a shot with her jewellery.
