The Tiger In You (for Mike)... all done

Previously reported from the Chantry School with Teacher Marjorie Duizer :) in our theme "Dreams" class. What fun we had. Now this rug with our son at college keeping hit feet warm in the mornings :) The most challenging was not making a straight nose! Mom and Dad (Sybil and Don Mercer) were my nightly consultants.
Size is just over 2ftx3ft. Big enough for size 10+ feet!
