One of my American friend presented me Carol W. Wells' Caged Beads pettern, which was also on Beadwork, Mar/Apr 2000 issue. It came out while I was making one. I don't know what to do with this. Pin, maybe. Peyote stitched with 11/0 Japanese.

The cat pattern is from Mining Co's Halloween Project. It was so lovely that I placed two of them face to face in brick stitched strip, and made it into a barrette for my (also cat crazy) sister.
