| fellow doggie clothing makers! I'm reposting this here to try to get a few more opinions please! 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!

| Hello. I couldn't help but wonder what you mean by car upholstery. Do you actually make the seats or like seat cover and such. Not sure if that made sense. Let me know as I have been wondering about something. Thanks

| I graduated from Wyo Tech Along with body and paint work, I can make covers for car seats from scratch or redo the ones that are there. I can do the fancy diamonds, pleats, tuck and roll etc. I can also do custom interior work, like putting flames in the headliner or door panels etc. We already have a kick ass auto interior place in my town and it wasn't something I really loved to do so I put it aside.
