| Tutorial or pattern for dog carrier/tote? Hi all! Does anyone know of a free pattern or tutorial online for a dog tote or carrier? I am pretty good at sewing and would like to make something in a cool fabric. Anyway, If anyone has any ideas, please let me know! Cheers, Neenagh |

| There aren't too many out there. You can try the 99c pattern sales - each pattern company has 1 or 2 carrier patterns. I'm working on a pattern for the sling I use for Sammy. I've made a few of them now and I think I have it just right |

| Here is the last one I made. I have just a couple changes to make and I think it's almost there. Sam really likes it! |

As far as making them, there is also the time commitment. I would have to charge way more than someone would most likely be willing to pay to make up for my time and all of the materials which are not cheap. I figured if I did a pattern/tutorial that lots of people sew or know someone who sews and they could make their own! Maybe I will do both.. we'll see! | |

When you're an artisan, and you don't have a lot of orders, you work for free for appreciation of your craft, not for the money.
