Bring a piece of history into your sewing room with a pattern inspired by the iconic Staffordshire Mantel Dog figurines! These ceramic King Charles Spaniels have watched over homes since the Victorian era, where their placement on the mantel was often rumored to signal secrets about the household. Whether they were sharing information or simply looking posh by the hearth, their charm is timeless, and now you can recreate these highly sought-after collectibles in fabric. This pattern offers incredible versatility, providing instructions for both a wall hanging featuring two dogs and a grand bed quilt showcasing ten. Beyond the full quilts, the individual dog blocks are perfectly sized to add a touch of "Staffordshire" flair to smaller projects like cushions, tote bags, or home decor accents. It is the perfect project for quilters looking for a unique, graphic design with deep historical roots, allowing you to capture the elegance of antique ceramics without the risk of breaking the china. Full-colour 24-page printed booklet, 5-1/2” x 8” with a rigid cover.
