I found some free patterns and patterns I can buy. The thing is, I was looking for a project I could do away from a sewing machine. Is it possible to sew dog clothes using these patterns but sewing by hand??? If so, are there special stiches I should be aware of and special thread I should use? I'm thinkingt basic fleece type outfits. Nothing fancy.
Thanks for any advice!!!!

Morning Suzie!
I sew also...I only use a machine to sew clothes...the seams will not be as strong if you hand sew and you will be able to see your stitches...I just made a hat and coat for a member here and I did hand sew the hat but, I used a different stitch that required hand sewing...I have never hand sewn clothing before but, I don't think you are going to like the look of it...this is just my opinion but, I would use a machine...Why don't you want to use a machine?
