{"product_id":"sew-your-own-sausage-dog-felt-craft-kit","title":"Sew Your Own Sausage Dog Felt Craft Kit","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis felt craft kit has everything you need to stitch and stuff your own sausage dog, a long, cheerful dachshund in warm orange felt with floppy brown ears, a black nose and a blue bow tie finished with a yellow button. The felt pieces come ready cut, with the stitching holes already punched around the edges, so there is no pattern to trace. Alongside the two body pieces you get the ears, eyes, nose, pink cheeks, red collar and bow, plus a white felt bone to sew, soft polyester stuffing, a bundle of cotton threads in several colours and a plastic needle. Finished, the dog measures about 23cm long and 7.5cm wide, a good size to sit on a shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt suits anyone who likes a hands-on project, whether that is a first go at sewing or a relaxing evening's stitching for someone who already knows their way around a needle. Step-by-step instructions come in the kit, taking you from threading the needle and tying the first knot through to joining the edges and filling the body. It makes a cheerful rainy-day activity at the kitchen table, and the finished dog brings a bit of character to a bedroom shelf, a desk or a windowsill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything packs into a turquoise tube with a lift-off lid, printed with a smiling sausage dog and a bone, so the kit stays tidy between sessions and is ready to give as it is. The felt is soft and easy to handle, and the cotton threads give the edges a bright, hand-stitched look. Once your dog is made, keep it looking its best by brushing off dust with a soft dry cloth, and treat any small marks with a barely damp cloth rather than soaking the felt. As a present, the printed tube needs little more than a ribbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRex London\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKit pieces: felt; stuffing: polyester; threads: cotton; needle: plastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.01KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarnings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarning!
