Dogs on the Beach

Dogs of the beach is a fun-filled tapestry kit for dog lovers. The design shows happy dogs playing ball on the beach, in front of a row of colourful beach huts. Waves lap against the sand in the foreground.

Stitch Dogs on the Beach for yourself or for a dog-loving friend. Your completed Dogs on the Beach tapestry will look wonderful as the centre panel in a cushion or bag or folded in half and used as a case for your sunglasses or reading glasses.

Choosing a Tapestry Frame

A tapestry frame is not essential but using one will help to prevent your work going out of shape. It also makes it easy to resume stitching the following day or to pick up and resume stitching after a break. We stock a good range of British made no-sew tapestry clip frames which are easy to assemble. The canvas is attached by sturdy clips, giving you the flexibility to switch between projects if necessary.

Dogs on the Beach will fit comfortably onto an 18" tapestry frame, code CF189. The '9' at the end is the height of the sidebars. Choose a wider frame (a 21" CF219 or a 24" CF249) if you think you will stitch larger (wider) projects in the future.
