I absolutely loved the cowboy hat. I had a craft show coming up at a horse rescue farm. This looked like the perfect time to put it on…

My eagle turned out great, next time I need to use a better background color. I thought it would pop out more on a denim jacket. Great quality…

Only customers who have purchased this design can leave a review.
Q1: Do I need a special needle for this design?
Pro Tip: A standard 75/11 or 80/12 embroidery needle handles this layout nicely. If you stitch it on something delicate, you might want a smaller size to prevent holes.
Q2: Which stabilizer makes Captain Nosey Dog look best?
Quick Note: A medium-weight cut-away is excellent for stretchy knits, while a tear-away is ideal for sturdy wovens like denim. If your fabric is fuzzy, float a water-soluble topping over it so the threads stay crisp.
Q3: Is it okay to resize Captain Nosey Dog?
Yes, dear! However, please do not resize by more than 10%. Scaling the file too much can throw off the stitch density and impact the final look.
Q4: Is it safe to iron over the finished stitches?
Absolutely, just make sure to iron from the back. We always suggest placing a pressing cloth over the area so you do not melt the threads with direct high heat.
Q5: Where do I get Captain Nosey Dog after checking out?
