Final Lion in Flowers embroidery

Here is the final version of the design. The thread is Madeira classic 40 rayon in 18 colors with 20 color changes. It took over 5 hours to stitch out but I had a couple of thread breaks and I tend to go slow anyway. The size is about 7 x 7.5. This piece will be cut out and appliqued by hand onto the quilt...I'm hoping tomorrow...but the contractor will be here for a long day with a bathroom remodel. I'm making up this quilt as I go so I have no idea what it's going to look like when it's finished.

Just lovely. You did an awesome job picking colors and stitching it out. I can't wait to see your quilt.

That's glorious! Is it your own design? I love the flowers and berries and leaves, and your mix of colors and the lion's expression. (Or is it a lioness because of the girly colors and hair adornments? LOL)
