Instructions

Every year we host a Haute Dog Howl-O-Ween Party for people who own small or toy breed dogs.

Every year I make 3-7 adult costumes and six or seven dog costumes. This year no costumes. Busy with my coat.

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Costume

For: Women

Style: Whimsical, Holiday, Cute


Materials

For my daughters dress I just used cotton. Tulle for the petticoat. For my grand kids (dogs) the girls were in cotton. Velcro, D rings.

What was your inspiration?

My daughter wanted another costume and wanted her two dogs to match.

What are you most proud of?

That I find the time every year to make my daughters and their pets costumes.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Be creative...it's all in fun!
