>Cat Got My Beads!
>
Since I just finished a bead-painting, I thought it was time to make a new item for my Etsy shop - a beaded black cat! :)

Inspired by a photo I saw on Faz the Cat's blog, I cut out a few pieces of felt and stitched them together. First, I started with green eyes, then I stitched several different black seed beads onto the felt. I used the backstitch technique. Since most of the beads are size 15 Japanese seed beads, this little project required many stitches!

One day & several hours later, I finally completed my black cat named Onyx. :)

Onyx beaded black cat pin/pendant. 1" x 2.25".
This piece is now available for sale in my Etsy shop. (Click the above pic to view listing.) It is both a pin and a pendant which can be worn on a necklace! I think Onyx will definitely make a statement at any Halloween party! Just don't let her cross your path! ;)
