Say hello to my absolute favorite piece I've made this far. This is Diane, a sumatran tiger from the San Diego zoo. I adored everything about this piece, and it was remarkably hard to let this one go. This was anywhere from 50-60 hours? Probably? Fully hand embroidered with single strand thread. I'll post a short TikTok I made of the process of this next.
The next major project is at last done. 5inch hoop, mostly single strand with three strand for the scales. Holo shimmer accents, felt padding for the bubbles. I like how it turned out for my first fish!
