Thanks Flutterby
Can't wait RP
It was a young one nan and it might be the same one you saw looking at the collar markings
Here are more pics of the same leopard
An embroidered version of the leopard
@Mods - I would like to donate embroidery work (not this leopard, already sold) for auction on the forum - all proceeds towards Timbi. Can we do this?

All done by hand Flutterby

Is this real embroidery work and what are the dimensions?
I take a photo and transfer it to material and then stitch it by hand to give it a 3D effect. It is all stitched with cotton and ribbons.
The leopard is off to Canada so I did not frame it but the fish eagle above is framed and once completed the dimensions can vary but the fish eagle is
53cm X 66cm
