Leopard, 1993

Ah - another cat that was calling my name. This time he was a wild one!





***************************************************
THE DETAILS
Title: Leopard
Medium: Counted Cross-Stitch
Source: Kit
Time: Finished Oct 1993 (approx. 2 1/2 years to complete)
Material: 14 count black aida; DMC cotton floss
Method: Two over one
Status: Currently hanging in my office at work
Extra note: Black is extremely difficult to work with. You really need an excellent light source. The dark cloth slowed down this project immensely.

Just thought you might want to know a trick when working with black fabric. Put a white cloth on your lap which helps to see the hole through the black fabric. Hope this helps.
