We sew clothes for the toy terrier with our own hands: patterns applicable for all occasions

In the conditions of our winter, as well as in spring, autumn and sometimes even in summer, such smooth-haired dogs as toy terriers desperately freeze. Therefore, every housewife strives to make their life more comfortable by dressing her in clothes. You can, of course, buy a jumpsuit or a sweater in a dog store, but it's much more interesting and more profitable to sew clothes for that terrier yourself, and we'll give you the patterns.

Before starting to work, you must select the material from which the product will be sewn. The fabric should be non-mark, easily washable and not rigid, so as not to rub the delicate skin of the dog. Optimum option: choose for the top plaid fabric, and for the flannel lining.

Clothing for the toy terrier can be very diverse: from home hygiene panties to a warm winter overall.

It's better if the dog has clothes for every season, because overheating for her is just as bad as overcooling.

In addition to clothing you will also need shoes that will protect you from dirt, humidity and reagents that our utility services like to sprinkle snow on in the winter.

You can sew interesting outfits for outdoor wear or for holidays - and attention to the dog from the surrounding ones is provided, see the photo below.

How to correctly measure?

If you want a suit to fit perfectly on a dog, you will need patterns for sewing clothes, just like when making clothes for people. And to make patterns, you need to take measurements from the dog.

The most commonly used parameters are the length of the back, chest and waist circumference, length of the abdomen and sometimes the height of the paws. All other measures can be considered auxiliary, which are used to refine the pattern.
The simplest pattern, available even for a beginner, is a simple blanket. So if you do not have much experience in cutting and sewing, start better with it.

Popon and overall

All that is required for making such ponples, is a little cloth, buttons or Velcro fasteners and a ribbon loop for the tail. If the paperclip is for the winter, you can make a lining of warm material.

By the way, the overall for a dog is also not very complicated in manufacturing, just a little more details. This is a coveralls with a collar.

And this is with a hood.

When cutting the material do not forget to add 1,5-2,0 cm to the seam, otherwise the dog will be just cramped in clothes.

Details can be made from fabrics of different colors and textures, so clothes will look more interesting and brighter. For decoration, you can use fur, rhinestones, buttons, pompons and so on. In general, everything is like people's.

Pattern for shoes

Also we present a universal pattern for shoes, on which it is possible to sew the most diverse footwear for a dog.

The following dimensions are needed for this pattern:

• Paw girth.
• Paw lifting.
• The size of the foot.

Observance of the size of the pattern is very important, properly sewn clothes, on the one hand, will not constrain the movements of the dog, on the other - it will not be baggy and will not get in the way of under the paws.

Not everyone likes to sew, some housewives are much closer knitting or crocheting. How to tie clothes for the toy terrier? Yes, for the same patterns that are used for sewing. Each piece of overalls or suits is individually knitted, after which the details are sewn together with the same thread. Such simple things as a blanket do not even require the removal of individual parts, but can be made with one whole. By the way, knitting is convenient in that unlike a fabric many kinds of matings have a property to be stretched, therefore clothes on a dog sits better, and small errors in the sizes are imperceptible.
