Just got done making mine. Will cut tomorrow. I've never done a tiger swirl, so no idea if this is going to come out the way I wanted it too or not. The white part got super thick, super quick because of the TD - but normally is workable. Never fails, I try to do a challenge soap (whether here, Facebook, just challenging myself) and something always goes awry. LOL
Guess that's why the call it a "challenge".

So, here’s the one I’m NOT entering... The idea was “White Tiger” in the colors of the Auburn University Tigers. It just turned out a little too minimal.
 
@Marilyn Norgart your soap looks great! I think you could enter it as it does have stripes throughout the bars. I agree that a tiger stripe is difficult to achieve in a slab mold. The entry thread opens tomorrow and will be open for a week. I know you love to make soap - try again in a loaf mold :)

I have mine already made in a loaf mold and am waiting rather impatiently to post the pics of it :) . thanks :)
 
Well, that was a spectacular failure due to an FO that accelerated trace. Back to the drawing board I have one more try in me!! Going for the safe stuff, and sticking to 3 colors....sigh.
