Title: Money Puzzle & Box
Post by: shadylady0447 on July 10, 2010, 11:14:04 pm
Summer has been very busy for me this year and I haven't been in the shop too much. But, I did make a gift for our granddaughter's birthday on July 8. She enjoyed her puzzle, and what was under it....two $50's! Gramma is a pushover.....luckily we only have one grandchild or we'd be broke! LOL The pattern is one of Steve Good's......thanks Steve!

Nice job, sure she loved the contents. It's a nice idea to combine this with a gift of money under it.

No, Dan and Barry, I didn't use a real fifty for the puzzle!  I just printed a copy on photo paper.   Looks like the real thing! ;D   This was my first puzzle, too.  
 
:D Mike, you sweet-talker!  How many birthdays do you have every year?  

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.

Nice puzzle, and good idea about a copy. After seeing Steves pattern I have been wanting to make one for my nephew, maybe place a real uncut note underneath the puzzle. Mark
