Still moving my old posts from A Morning Cup of Jo to A Morning Cup of Jo Creations!  Please excuse the currently jumbled timeline!  You can think of it as having flashbacks… or time traveling! :P

June 12, 2011: This little guy was fun to make!  After adding the black stripes, he definitely looked more like a tiger than a bear!  (Some of you may remember how worried and unsatisfied I was during the work-in-progress post.)  I’m loving the look of the stitching now that I’ve applied new techniques that I’ve learned. :) Also, switching to a smaller hook feels like it creates more work because it takes longer to build up to the same sized animal, but I think it’s worth it! The stitching is much tighter, which means that less stuffing shows through. Yay!

This tiger took about 9 hours to make (counting the time that it took to take apart and remake some body parts). If I make a tiger again, I’d like to change up his proportions a bit to enhance the cuteness factor.
