Hi all,

I just made these cute little beaded kitten cats few weeks ago and the good news is I also just completed the free tutorial for it at: http://beadjewelrymaking.com/2009/project/july.html to share with those who is interested to make one or a few for yourself.

I used the smallest beads I have which is size 11/0 and one size smaller for the tiny paws, so the little cats are each standing at only 1 cm tall, they are so tiny that I'm thinking of making a kitten charm bracelet with some of them.

I used typically the right angle weave technique but usually more than four beads weaves.

I used various color combinations to make eight of them, each of different colors, here's more colors of my litter of beaded kitten cats: http://www.beadjewelrymaking.com/2009/beaded_cat.html

Thanks for looking!

 Hey Dagmar,

If you figure out a tiger, would you let me know? Tigers are not only my alma mater's mascot, but my favorite animal.

I wonder if the charm maybe is too small for tiger stripes, but I'll give it a try.

So CUTE!!! You must have an awesome inventory of things that you have made. Do you keep a collection of all your critters?

Design it with your regular beads, then make it with size 15 or smaller.  That would keep the size down a bit.
