Its looks great and I cant see a lot wrong with the paw it loks fine to me just like the finished picture.

Finished and framed. William is delighted with it! He was hugging it to his chest! Daddy is going to hang it up in his bedroom.

What a fabulous finish--and the frame is just perfect for it!! Congrats on completing it and making William so very happy!!

Oh wow, love it

Of course he loved it, it's gorgeous. And you finished it very fast, too

It looks fantastic - the backstitching has really brought the little cat to life. Great finish

What a great gift for your grandson! Congratulations on finishing it so quickly

That was very quick!!!! And he came out fantastic!!!!!

Beautiful work!!!

Congrats on the finish! Your changes look great!

Adorable!

It's wonderful!!

You must have been so happy with William's reaction ... I would have been in tears!!

Lovely finish

Lovely finish...And a sweet reaction from your Grandson.

Thanks, everyone! It's the first time I've attempted a big(ish) change to a design, so, considering my inexperience at such things I'm tolerably pleased. Everything else is as the designer did it, even the lop-sided whiskers - though I did add a few single-strand eyebrow whiskers, which look good in RL but you can't see 'em much on the photo.
Yes Will's reaction was great! Very sparkly-eyed and big grin!

Awww -- it's lovely, and good to hear it was enthusiastically received!
