and here he is in all his glory.

stitched on 18ct fabric hand dyed by VintageNeedleArts (Etsy shop) left from another project. As the background and one of the suggested floss colors wouldn’t work, I substituted DMC 3862 and two colors from Forbidden FiberCo (Coffee & Cloves) for the fancy floss suggested.
The next animal in the series has been release – the Savanah Elephant. It is cute, but not as much as the leopard. Perhaps I am thinking in light of the elephants I saw in Africa and not being all that impressed especially considering all the environmental and agricultural damage they do. I am not starting this one till next month so it leaves as spot open to fill now with anything I can do in less than 2 weeks.

then there is the challenge of attempting to stitch with a lap kitty.
Apparently the lap kitty thinks you should “paws a while”!
ooowwww. Bad Pun, Cat – oh such a bad pun…
