This was a gift I made for my brother.  The pattern is called Spirit of the Eagle and is by Sally Smith.

I mounted it on a 10 x 13 press board.  It took me probably 6 months to complete.

My brother loved it!!  He likes it when I bring some masculinity to my crafts. He said "I have just the place for it".  We are descendants of Pocahontas.  She is our 13th gr grandmother.
