This is a gorgeous design - I love all big cats and have a tiger chart somewhere in my stash. Looking forward to seeing some pictures of your progress on this.

*APOLOGIES IN ADVANCE FOR THE SIZE OF THE PICS*
....just the outline of the eyes started on 15th June
....a little more of the face, and some of the patches filled in by the 20th June
As far as I'm concerned my progress is not too bad considering I only had 4 of the 25 colours required for the project. At the end of this last week I visited my local stash shop to get 19 of the missing skeins, and I'm due to pick up the remaining two missing skeins tomorrow (Mon)

I think it may have been a comment that you made in the past about the eyes making a project come alive.
My only regret was that I didn't have all the colours to be able to fill them in. I'm getting the final two skeins today, so that whenever I get an opportunity, I intend to complete the eyes first.
Hoping to be able to make more progress on this one over the next couple of days. I guess it makes a difference when I finally have all the skeins that I need

Rose, just wait till you see the eyes finished!!!
I filled in all the colour today, and some additional surrounding areas - I'll just finish off a small amount of backstitch / highlights, and take an update piccy tomorrow.
