tiger and cub and forever friends garden swing *updated 24/2

Post by tina12580 »

Hi everyone, I started the tiger kit quite a few years back and thought it was about time I got it finished. This is how far I've got at the mo

Image

As it is on black aida, I'm finding it a nightmare to work on unless I have good light, so I have started a project i can work on in the evenings too.

This is what it should look like when it's complete

Image

And this is where I'm at

Image

So glad I've got my stitching bug back :D

:applesauce: great job on both projects. I am always in admiration of those of you who stitch on the dark fabrics. I have one hidden away in a drawer somewhere and I'm sure it will stay there. Your tiger is great and the teddy is too cute.

The black fabric brings so much more life into the tiger! I would love to see more of that. :wub:

Not a fan of forever friends personally, but i like the work you've done so far!

Two very different project to keep your interest going.

Love that Tiger, very dramatic on black. The 'forever friends' is coming on well, too :wub:
