Making DIY Dog Clothes

Making DIY dog clothes for your pup is fun, and making your dog clothes can save you money. 

Your dog will dress with style, Your Style! Making those dog clothes yourself will ensure you get the look you want.  The clothes you made your dog will fit correctly and look great.

It can be a challenging project if you've chosen a complicated pattern, but it's still a worthwhile effort. And your dog will look so cute!

The dog clothes ideas on this page are no-sew. I love no-sew projects because I am a beginner at sewing. I can sew a button on or patch a little tear, but that's it.

It doesn't matter how big or small your dog is when you are making homemade dog clothes.  You will measure your dog and those measurements will ensure the clothing will fit your pup. 

No more buying a piece of clothing for your dog only to find it doesn't fit!   Homemade outfits, because they fit, are a big plus when you have an extra small dog or an XL dog. 

The big dogs are the most problematic; It is usually challenging to find clothes that fit, and when you do, they are pretty expensive.

Here are some ideas on making dog clothes and where to find the patterns to do it.
