How-To and Use Case Notes

How-To: Start by laying down the black outline and the dark grey patches. Use tweezers for the small white highlights in the eyes and the teeth. Iron gently and evenly so the large areas of solid white and black fuse completely without melting too flat.
Use Case: Makes a great desk display piece or wall decoration for dog lovers. Because it has a solid body shape with few protruding parts, it is durable enough to turn into a cute room sign.

FAQ

What pegboard size do I need for this pattern?

This is a medium-to-large design that will likely require joining four standard interlocking square pegboards together to fit the full width of the dog.

Are there many similar colors to watch out for?

Yes, look closely at the shading. It uses a mix of true black, dark charcoal gray, and medium gray for the fur textures, along with white and light gray for the chest highlights.
