Here are two different techniques. One I ran through Shadermap and the other I ran through Corel to try and clean the image. I am no expert with either method so hopefully they can be further improved.

Oscar, if you want to make your work "improvable" by others, you should post gray scale .png.

Dan, here are the two images I ended up with to play with.

Here is another attempt. You have to add the text.

I do a lot of complex designs like that.

Thanks guys,

I have been very busy on this logo. I appreciate the help with this but it came down to me learning more about the CW software, buying more software, working with the pattern in a graphic programs. But I finally got a pattern made . I have carved the boards getting ready to glue them up. I will post the finished 28 x 28 logo in a few days.

Thanks all,
Allen
