Here is a cut of a Sue Mey pattern I made for my daughter who loves tigers.  Definitely a favorite present this year!

Great Job of cutting! and finishing and framing and .....

I'm curious...what blades did you use on this 'masterpiece'? Spirals???

GB - I used FD UltraReverse #1.  Used almost a whole dozen of 'em for the whole thing.  Tried spirals on an earlier project, didn't go well!

Thanks dgman!

Very nicely done!  I'm not surprised it was her favorite gift.
