Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare your fabric by washing and ironing it to remove any creases.
2. Print or draw a schnauzer silhouette on paper, ensuring it's about 2 inches wide and 2 inches tall.
3. Place the fabric in the embroidery hoop, tightening it securely.
4. Using the water-soluble marker, lightly trace the schnauzer outline onto the fabric.
5. Thread your embroidery needle with black floss and start outlining the schnauzer's body.
6. Use gray floss to fill in the salt and pepper texture, using short stitches for a textured look.
7. Add details such as eyes and a nose with black floss, and white for highlights.
8. Once finished, carefully rinse off any remaining marker with water and let the fabric dry.
9. Trim any excess fabric around the hoop and iron it for a neat finish.
