Make a feathery-gilled amphibian friend when you embark on this DIY craft kit! The axolotl is a creature that spends its entire life in the water and is native to Mexico, specifically Mexico City.
This kit was created to help you show your love of axolotls while making an old garment or hat feel brand new and keep it out of the landfill. After all, you can’t get rid of it, it’s got a hand-embroidered patch on it!
When you've completed the kit, you'll have a hand-crafted axolotl patch with a stick-on backing that will permanently adhere to any fabric surface.
