Lion in brick stitch

Lion beaded in brick stitch

We continue a series of keychains with zodiac signs. Today is the turn of Lion (or Leo as a zodiac sign). For beading we will use the technique of brick stitch, but in a more complicated version than before: our Lion will be a separate figure, with no background.
We will need:
- size 8 seed beads of six colors; I used seed beads of yellow, orange, grey, pink-grey, red and blue colors,
- nylon line 0.25 mm in diameter and two beading needles (as usual, for basic weaving we will need only one needle, and if you can weave the first row without the second needle, you can do without it at all).
