My Lion – progress report 5

Bykaterattray April 1, 2010

I wanted to carry on tiling  onto the tummy. I know not many people will look underneath him, but there is always one, and besides it doesn’t feel right to leave any bits out. I do however, think I am able to be a little less precise and use more whole tiles. So here is…
