Here's my Halloween themed tag. I've needle felted a black cat using fur from my own black cat, Nelson! As he's quite elderly his fur is more grey than black now, but I'm pleased with this. The background is a tag from a pair of leggings, and a piece of a woollen blanket dyed green, which I bought at a craft fair. I tried some beads for eyes but they just didn't work.
Nelson is 14 and full of character. I was really surprised to find out that it's very hard to re-home black cats. I would definitely have another black cat, as every one I've ever met has been full of character! I've included some photos of Nelson with my tag.
Cool tag! My sister had a black cat-- he was a doll!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant tag. I have used my cats fur to do a picture of him. He is black/white. Hugs Mrs A.
