I do have a rug finish to share. I finished hooking it many months ago but wanted to tweak the eyes a bit and it took this long . . . sigh. You know me and faces and eyes. We don't play nice together. Anywho . . . the eyes are better than they were . . . but definitely primitive!!! This is a pattern by Caroline Twigg of Eagles' Nest Woolens, started in a class with Caroline in October 2022. Titled Fierce Lion, I affectionately have called him Fierce Lion with the Batman Mouth 😁 I am happy to finally have him hooked and bound.
After 33 years of being together, my brother and his significant other are finally getting married this Saturday. Lyn and I go waaaay back. We lived together long before they got together. I love her dearly and the other day she told me she was happy because she always wanted an older sister. Smart a**. (I am a grand total of 4 months older . . . lol!)
My Las Vegas son is flying home for the wedding. Just a quick trip, arriving Friday before the crack of dawn and leaving Sunday evening. It will be so good to see him. Thankfully he won't mind the chaos of my house. He is a carpenter working in homes so understands that it always has to get worse before it gets better.

Congrats on your finally finish, lol. Eyes look fine to me but then I can't remember what they looked like before. I totally understand the space of time between tweaks and binding. I hate binding and tweaking is a little less unsavory.
Funny about your future SIL. If it makes you feel any better I consider you my 'younger sister' :~)
I remember this one. Glad you tweaked what you didn't like. That face on the prior post .... amazing. Enjoy the family weekend!
Awww...I love your Fierce Lion (with the batman mouth)! His eyes look perfect to me. Wonderful story with your brother and friend. Hope they have 33 more happy years together. Gee, while your LV son is there, maybe he'll be tempted to help speed your project along? Sleep is overrated you know. ~Robin~ (You'll forever be my much older twin LMBO)
