Raccoon Embroidered Patch Kit

Embroider a raccoon patch

Stitch a sneaky raccoon with this DIY embroidery craft kit! These masked creatures are plentiful throughout the U.S., their dexterous front paws giving them the ability to grasp all sorts of food they find. It's earned them the nickname, for better or worse, as trash panda. 

This kit was created to help you show your love of raccoons 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 raccoon patch with a stick-on backing that will permanently adhere to any fabric surface.
