Bead-embroider Tiger with this Charivna Mit beadwork kit - the finished piece is a round-faced cartoon tiger, its orange and black striped fur, turquoise-rimmed eyes, and pearl-white chin and paws all built up in dense seed-bead texture. Why this kit: the felt pieces create a soft dimensional finish; the templates and stitch guide make the project approachable; the finished ornament or hoop art is easy to display or give as a handmade gift. Kit includes: instruction chart, color pattern, Preciosa beads in 14 colors and 8 sizes, Crystal Art beads in 6 colors, gimp, rhinestone chain, felt, a fastener, and a needle. Made in Ukraine. Bead embroidery is worked by following the color pattern and stitching each bead onto the felt base in the indicated position and shade, building up texture and shine bead by bead, with gimp couched along the outer edge to define the tiger's silhouette. The finished beadwork is then mounted onto a cardboard backing for a firm, structured shape. Once complete, attach the brooch pin to wear or gift. Finished size: 5.5x5.5 cm (2.17x2.17 in). A fun beadwork project and a charming handmade tiger brooch for an animal lover or gift recipient of any age.
