The dachshund embroidery kit is the very first kit that we created and released out into the world - it’s still one of our favourites, so we are really glad that it remains on our bestseller list.
Get creative with our dog embroidery kits!
If you are looking for a bigger project to get stuck into, our dachshund embroidery kit is stitched in a 9” hoop, so there is plenty of stitching to keep you occupied. Although it is a larger project, we have used the same stitches as in our smaller designs, meaning you can definitely create it as a beginner. When we released this kit during lockdown, we received messages from people trying embroidery for the first time and absolutely loving being creative in a new way. We designed the stitches used in the project here in our studio by playing around with straight stitches, seed beads and french knots to create different textures and patterns. So, if you are a more advanced embroiderer, there are plenty of new stitches for you to learn and keep you busy too.
Once you have finished stitching the embroidery, we include a few ideas in the instruction booklet of what you could do with the design once it is complete. We suggest keeping it framed in the embroidery hoop - you can pop the screw at the top of the hoop straight onto a nail in the wall, or hang it using some ribbon. Other ideas include making it into a cushion or framing it inside a square mount - the possibilities are endless!
Whether you are a dog owner, or know someone who loves sausage dogs, we have designed our dachshund embroidery kit to treat yourself, your mum, friend, dog walker, grandma or teacher to something special. The contents of each kit are carefully wrapped in tissue paper and placed inside a branded cardboard box - we want to make the unboxing experience as beautiful and fun as possible! Everything you need to make the embroidery hoop design is included, so you can sit back and enjoy the experience! Your kit will include:
- 2x Needles (1x John James embroidery needle, 1x beading needle)
- Full Instructions (A4 size booklet)
- Linen Fabric with Pre-Stitched Outline
- Backer (placed behind the fabric)
- 9” Embroidery Hoop (Elbesee Hardwood Hoop)
- Threads (DMC Stranded Cotton, Appletons Crewel Wool)
- Seed Beads (Size 11 Toho Seed Beads)
- Bobbin of Thread (for attaching beads)
Please note, the scissors shown in the photograph are for decorative purposes only and are not provided with the kit - you will need to provide your own pair.
