Default A Few questions regarding Patterns

I have been watching Gene Messers Tutorials on Youtube and Love them without him I wouldnt have even been as far along as I am ( so far making a wood chain and making a few heads out of the small scrap pieces from the wood chain ) but there were a few things I couldnt find patterns for ( there are probably more but I've found quite a few patterns. ) One was the Boot Pattern, another was the Simple Dog Pattern I got one of them but he goes into making a few other patterns after that that I couldnt find anywhere. Fisherman Caricature was another one.. I searched the tutorial section for all of his stuff or anything that mentioned him and wasnt able to find them.

Kathy has an excellent idea! Also, you can get all kinds of pattern ideas from clipart available online. Just Google whatever it is you are looking for clipart. I get lots of ideas that way! One other thought is to ask if anyone here on the forum has a pattern they could send you...I'm sure you will get lots of responses. I have a pattern for an old shoe (boot, not a cowboy boot) if that's what you are looking for, and a pattern for an old fisherman in a raincoat and hat. I'll be happy to send them...just send me a private message with your address!
