What is a DogGrin Design Collar?

This self-finishing needlepoint collar is handcrafted with premium leather and brass hardware. It features a window displaying a hand-painted needlepoint canvas, measuring 6 inches wide by ½ or ¾ inch high. The design allows stitchers to create a collar for their “best friend” and complete it in a weekend.

How do you finish a DogGrin Design Collar?

To start, move the backing flap using a fabric clip.

  • Choose materials: Use any preferred color and fiber; wool works well.
  • Select a stitch: Use a simple tent stitch or any decorative stitch.
  • Secure the flap: Optionally glue the backing flap for stability; place a heavy object on it while drying.
  • Drying time: Follow the glue's instructions; we let it dry overnight.

And that's it!
