So, you want to make clothes for your dog, but ...you don't know how. Well, I have the easiest pattern to print, and sew your own dog vest jacket! And, the jacket is reversible! The design possibilities are endless, where this is a very versatile pattern to work with. It give you the main body of the vest that will have front leg holes, and an arm hole, and the hook & loop / Velcro closure along their bellies.

This is actually one of my easier patterns to make, I think even easier than the dog belly bands!

On my jacket design, the vertical sides will connect with hook & loop closure, sewn on, and the tabs at the top will connect around the shoulder, after the piece is turned inside out, to curve around the top of the neck, and make the front leg holes.

For a pug / large toy breed dog size, 23-25" wide girth, 29 1/2" wide around girth when finished

About 2 - 2 1/2 hours prep and sew time, mainly because of sewing the Velcro closure on both panels, and sewing around the paper pattern, and sewing the stitch lines of each pattern together, that all just takes time and patience lol.

When you tape the 6 sheets of pattern pages together, tape them, and cut them out, using the legend photo as a guide, it will look like it has wings lol. I had a Yorkie fur mom ask me to take a Yorkshire terrier t-shirt, to make her t-shirts for her dog. Well, it was small enough to scan on the scan bed, and I noticed on the bottom, the chest and belly area, there was a "+" stitch seam, where the sides of the chest / shoulder were connected vertically, and the belly seam was sewn vertically, and then those top and bottom connections / seams were sewn together horizontally, looking like a "+" or PLUS sign, and serged for a clean seam. I looked at it, and thought, "I wonder if I take this "+" seam connection, and how the shoulders sloped in on an angle, that if I make those parts, and the belly area flip out, it looked like angled out wings, and vertical side wings. So, I applied that technique to the dog jacket' seams along the belly and chest, using the zig-zag stitch on my machine to "serge" the edges, adjusting the pattern, from a t-shirt design to a jacket design, and found that the store bought jackets had a similar design that I was looking make.

Supplies:

- 1 yard of fabric, 1/2 yard for each side of the jacket

- coordinating thread, for each fabric color and hook & loop (Velcro) color, preferably the larger rolls, especially for sewing the hook & loop onto the jackets

hook & loop, brand name is known as Velcro, 3/4" wide by 9" long, so 1/4 yard

Then you just need my 6 printable pattern pages, tape, a large pack of straight pins, plus 100/16 or 110/18 machine weight needles, especially for the Velcro brand hook & loop closure, as you will need a lot o thread, and the heavier needle to straight stitch, then zig-zag stitch 3-4 times around the edge of the hook & loop. You can transfer the pattern onto contact paper, or clear vinyl, to then use later, to make more vest jackets, then just store it for when you're ready to use it next time.
