This Victorian craft for a dog collar is from an 1872 Harper's Bazaar magazine. The collar consists of a strip of blue cashmere sixteen inches long and an inch and a quarter wide, which is ornamented, as shown by the illustration, with application figures of red cloth and with button-hole and herringbone stitching of red saddler's silk. | |
