Christine Birkle uses an old felting technique of rubbing wool with soap and water to create the material used in her Felt Daschund. The result is a soft, durable and high-quality textile. Plus, this innovative approach allows the designer to create her handcrafted animals completely without seams or tucks. Named Basti, this stuffed Daschund has an elongated nose and tail, with a handmade character of his own. Each Daschund will be slightly different. Made in Germany.
