As to woods, 1x anything is fine. I start my students (I teach high
school shop) cutting heart shaped patterns out of a 3/4", 5 1/2" x 5 1/2"
square.

You're having high school kids cutting out HEARTS?!?!? What an ass hole.
:-)

Seriously though, why not have them cut out Chevy bow ties or Ford ovals,
or Mopar rams, or . . .something else they can relate to better?

Thanks for your valuable input, but I think that I will ignore it. Should
you decide to teach HS students, you may do as you wish. Were my students
to complain, I would listen to their words and act accordingly, but despite
your protestations my students don't seem to object. They tend to give them
to their girlfriends/boyfriends and appear to enjoy the benefits that such a
gift affords them.
