Default questions for clothes makers

Feel free to move this if I didn't put it in the right place, I wasn't sure.

I have experience in sewing, car upholstrey actually. And there is little to nothing for pet clothes in my area. So I thought I'd like to try my hand at it and had a few questions for the pros.

Are there any patterns you've gone off of?

How do you decide your sizes?

Are any fabrics easier to work with than others?

Are snaps or velcro easier?

Are you required to have some sort of business license? (I realize you should be charging tax if you're doing sales your state)

How do you work things with your taxes?

What's the best way to do shipping?

What are the fees like for paypal? Ebay?


I appreciate any help you guys can give me. I see the great jobs you do on here and want to see it's feasable for me. Who knows, I may suck and give up. Or we all could be designing for Hollywood's pampered pets. Thanks!
