Making notes
Build the central head and spine before extending both stepped wings. Alternate the grey membrane sections, preserve the warm chest bridge and keep the three blank rows above and below the active motif.
This bat Perler bead pattern answers Halloween and animal craft searches with a broad flying silhouette that remains practical on one standard board. Makers can edit the stepped wing edges, dark head, layered grey membranes, warm chest and six pale accents, then switch Brands and export the counted grid without relying on the source image.
Start at the head and upper body spine, then extend each wing in stepped sections from the central shoulders outward. Fill the cool grey membrane bands before adding the darker inner breaks, and place the warm chest after both wings are balanced. Finish the pale ear and lower accent cells only after the outer wing tips and lower body contour are checked. The reported active area is 24 columns by 18 rows; the final square adds three blank rows above and below, not side padding. The wings are intentionally unequal in their small notches even though the silhouette reads as a pair. Keep the central body axis, the separated wing gaps, the six pale accents and the four-cell lower taper aligned to the 24-column ruler.
Pattern layout and bead count
Kandi Pad reports a 24×18 active rectangle with 260 beads. The final editor matrix keeps that full width and adds three blank rows above plus three below to create a 24×24 square. It fits one standard 29×29 Midi board; the vertical padding remains in the coordinate frame and makes the flying pose sit correctly within the export. Checkpoints: Rows 1–6: keep the central head and upper wing steps centered while the first three top padding rows remain blank. Rows 7–14: preserve the paired wing notches, cool-grey bands and warm chest bridge without closing the central gaps. Rows 15–20: recount the lower wing edges, brown contour steps and pale accent cells. Rows 21–24: leave the three bottom normalization rows blank beneath the active 18-row motif.
Ways to customize this pattern
A two-tone night version can merge the grey roles only after checking the wing notches, while a warmer Halloween version can shift the chest toward copper. Keep the pale ear accents visible.
Cool Grey Wing, Charcoal Wing Shadow and Black Structure create the layered silhouette; Warm Brown Chest adds a central value break; Dark Brown Accent supports the lower contour; Pale Ear Highlight supplies six small light cells. Keep the grey roles separated enough to read the membrane folds, and do not let the pale accents disappear against a light backing.
Print and iron checklist
The bat has 260 beads across several dark and cool-grey roles, so the wing membranes can close if heated as one large sheet. Fuse left and right sections in alternating passes, inspect every notch before flipping, and cool the broad panel flat so the lower wing corners and narrow ear highlights stay in their stepped positions. Before export, verify the 24×24 coordinates, 260-bead total and all 6 active color roles against the on-page material list.
Project ideas for Bat
The bat suits a Halloween garland, night-sky classroom panel, costume-party badge, spooky bookshelf marker or repeated window decoration. Use the dense body for a magnet or adhesive backing and avoid drilling the thin wing edges. A monochrome charcoal version can simplify the greys, but retain a lighter chest or ear role so the pose does not collapse at thumbnail size.
The source grid uses j and the other design symbols only as internal color roles. The interactive chart replaces them with the selected manufacturer codes, while its material list combines any roles that map to the same bead color.
