Aww, thank you!

The bit I'm working on at the moment is actually an eye.

I don't know if you can see it as that or not. I was really bothered thinking that with her fur all black looking and her eye so dark, it just won't stand out. But I'm hoping it does!

Every time this disappears for a bit I forgot how amazingly good and lifelike it is. Well done, tb, for persevering when Mr.

came to visit. It has really paid off.

Well I don't know what to think now.

I've got the eye done but it's so dark on her dark fur, I'm not convinced you'd be able to see it if you didn't know it's there. I can pick it out, but I know where it is.

Maybe other parts of her face will make it more apparent.
But I don't know.

Wow, this is beautiful! So lifelike!

I can tell that is her eye, but I think it will be clearer once you fill in more of the face details.

~threadbear~ · Post by **~threadbear~** » Wed Jan 06, 2010 11:42 pm

Yep, you're right Ally, there are two eyes on there

, but I don't think they look right.

Well, not yet anyhow).
I'm going to have another go at doing more on her face over the weekend, possibly Friday night and see if that helps matters.

hi,
yay i can actually see. shame i didn`t see that bit of ice i slipped on while feed my mare today .lol.

it looks really great .
i`am sure it will come togeather once theres more to see.

u could always pick out the eyes a bit more with a lighter colour later if ur still not happy

.

I totally see the eye and think they show up well in the stitching.

Erulisse · Post by **Erulisse** » Thu Jan 07, 2010 2:20 am

wow! that's really really pretty!!

I could definitely make out where the eye is too, am pretty sure it'll be more obvious after the other parts are stitched out. Can't wait to see how the finished project will look!! Am getting inspired to do one of my cat now... but I'd betta not start another potential UFO b4 my current UFO is done
