Beaded Faz the Cat

beaded Faz the Cat feline bead embroidery wearable fine art jewelry brooch pin
Beaded Faz the Cat brooch. 2" x 2- 1/4 wide" (5cm x 6cm).
Now available at The Lone Beader's Gallery Shop!

Here's Faz!! How do you think she looks beaded?? Faz was completed in a freeform bead-embroidery sort of way, and I kinda like it! She has both personality & texture! You will also notice the her eyes are 2 different colours - one is green and one yellow. This is because cats always seem to have one very bright eye when you look at them in the light or when you take a picture of them. So, I thought it might help give it some realism! What do you think?

Anyways, I am planning to add this little pin to my Etsy shop, but I realized that I don't know what kind of cat Faz is! (Sorry, guess I'm not really a cat person! LOL.) If you know what kind of cat this is, please leave a comment! I will list her in my shop soon. Thanks for your help! :)

And, just in case I'm not able to visit your blogs in time, I would like to wish everyone a very Happy New Year! I have a feeling I will be spending New Year's Eve beading - I have another custom order to fill! :D

Faz is a calico - and an adorable one.

Congrats to the new custom order. But you should enjoy the special evening which leads you into the year without beading and with a good friend!!! :)

Three colored cats are calico and the pin is wonderful!!

A three colored cat is the luckiest cat there is - they're a big help when you wish for things.

That's probably the only cat I'm not allergic too. ;-)

Faz is adorable! He looks like more of a tortoise shell cat than a calico to me. Actually, he bears a startling resemblance to that cat I had growing up.

I vote with betsy on this one...faz is what I'd call a tortoise shell cat...but now I'm going to have to go and see what the difference is!

beadbabe49 said...

I did and both names are correct...the terms are used interchangeably...your factoid for the day, diana.

Wow! Thanks for all the comments! Now I remember calico cats! How could I have forgotten! But, I have never heard of a tortoise shell cat! Happy to learn something new today! :)

Christine and FAZ said...

OMG that is amazing. We are definitely going to buy one if we can afford it from your Etsy shop. Please let us know how much they are. I am called a tri-colour tortise shell moggy in the UK by the by (e.g. no pedigree). I think in the US we are called Calico cats but I could be wrong. Big PURRS (I am most honoured). Can I put it on my blog with a link to your shop? FAZ

Hello Christine & Faz! Thank you for the info! I think Calico cats are my favourite kind of cat! And, I am so thrilled that you like my beadwork! Hope you enjoy the pin! *blush* :)
