Tiger Chilling Out

I love tigers!! I had so much fun doing this piece. I love how the stitching looks on black. 

Interesting story with this one: I had finished all the tiger and was working on the water. We took a trip up to a friend's cabin and I had taken my cross stitch with me. After arriving home and wanting to work on it again, I couldn't find it anywhere! I thought surely I had left it up at the cabin. The friend checked all around the next time they were up there and it was no where to be found. I couldn't find it anywhere in my house. I was so sad to think it was lost! All that work... my beautiful tiger! About five months went by and then one morning in December, when we were packing up our house to move, my husband woke me up out of bed with a surprise. He had found my cross stitch! Somehow it had gotten caught in the crevice of the back seat of our car and was only visible when he had laid down the row of seats as he was loading it up to take stuff to our storage unit. I was sooo happy to have it back again! Now this project is finished, but I don't have it framed yet. It will be the next one I put up on display.
