Totally Pawsome

A long, narrow panel with five dogs in a row: the labrador magician with his rabbit and wand, the collie with a slice of melon, the poodle under an umbrella in rubber boots, the sausage dog in a bun and, at the end, the chef dog busy at the barbecue. The lettering is part of the design and is stitched too.

All the stitching materials are in the kit: you only need to add a hoop or frame and a small pair of scissors. Most of the work is plain cross stitch, while back stitch outlines and French knots pick out faces, eyes and small details, so it suits anyone who has already done a little cross stitch. The elongated shape works well in a slim frame, in the kitchen or above a door; the frame is not included.
