| Which do you prefer? For those of us who dress our babies... Do you like the stretchy outfits that slip over the head or do you like the harness style ones that velcro around the neck and tummy better?

| Stretchy!! That is why I went through and sold a lot of Jada's dresses that I have made her..we prefer comfort over fancy these days.

Katie Scarlett's Mommy Donating Member | We have both, but I prefer the harness style dresses. KS isn't crazy about stuff going over her head. Everytime we do jammies she squeezes her eyes tight. LOL. I try to put them over as quick as I can and she seems comfy when we are finished, but she just doesn't like stuff going over her face. But she also hates when I am brushing her and have to do around her face. She must just not be crazy about stuff in front of her face. She is fine when I brush the top of her head, but not under the eyes and around mouth.

| It would depend on which one of the girls I'm referring to. Moka does well with anything and has a variety of both the t-shirt style and the velcro so I don't really have a preference for her, but Mylee will chew velcro, but doesn't mind the comfortable t-shirt styles.

| I really prefer stretchy for Zhoie, but finding the dresses is an issue. She loves her tee-shirs and that's what she wears most of the time. The girl has a closet full of dresses she never wears, because the comfort just doesn't look there to me. I will dress her for a quick trip out or pictures in velcro but that's about it. She definitely a tee-shirt kinda girl

| I prefer the T-Shirt stretchy fro Allie, because of her long hair. Willow hates the sound of the Velcro and it scares her, so I guess Stretchy for her. Luci I can use either Velcro or stretchy.

| There is an older technique called "stretch and sew" also use a needle ment for fine fabrics (sharp) not universal. The technique to not stretch your fabric out and keep it flat comes with pratcise. |

| Everyday dresses are knit. Dressy dresses are cotton,satin or velvet with velcro closures. |

| Lola hates getting stuff pulled over her head. So I perfer the velcro, seems like I can get a good fit without having to push her head and bend her paws to get her into it. She is used to velcro harnesses so she sits very nice when I put a dress on her.

| Neither. I prefer buttons or snaps.
