This is just so well done and amazingly beautiful. You did a great job. I too would like to know how you did the eyes, is it fabric painting or did you find a fabric that faded from light to dark green you were able to fussy cut or was this a kit that included the fabric?

You did an outstanding job with the thread painting.

WOW! Stunning

ditto... a thousand times!

Oh my word! That is spectacular. The back is almost as beautiful as the front. Wonderful job.

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous!

Boy is that a beauty! Is the man your husband? Whoever gets is is sure to cherish it. Great work

So realistic looking! You did a fabulous job on it.

Thank you for all the comments. Someone asked about the pattern. It's from the Bigfork Cotton Bay Co. Also someone wanted to know about the eyes. The eyes have several pieces all layered together. On the pattern the eyes are gold but I changed them to green, then used several colors to thread paint, also added some stitches of yellow. My brother helped me pick out some of the fabrics so that is why I named him Manly Man Tiger because he seemed to look more manly than the pattern. After I put on the binding I will be sad it's done. I loved doing the thread work. Thanks again for all the nice comments.

WOW! That is stunning. Worth every inch of thread you used.

That is really something. The eyes are stunning.
