So cute and pretty and Lilah is such a beautiful model!

:D Your description of Tibbe really made me laugh, I can just imagine him walking off thinking "Hmmph, fine, I'll wear it but I don't have to like it!":D

So cute! Mimi & Princess wants one please.:D

Omg . . so freakin adorable !!

These are not like any I've seen before but I love them. So feminine and girly. How might I get some of these for Ruby. Do share !!!

How sweet!!!! How did you make them. I think a person could use onesies ???? Maybe?

I am truly so pleased and flattered :) :love:

I used fat quarters for the waist band and ankle trim, the pre ruffled fabric was thirty dollars a yard :eek: but lilah is pretty small :yorkieg: it was the only color they had (happened to be one of my favorites) and actually the sales rep said the had no pre gather fabric only trim! So I felt extra lucky to have found it.

The suspenders are a thicker cotton lace trim by the yard , the waistband is attached with Velcro and I sewed two buttons on the Velcro and two buttons on the back so that suspenders can be interchangeable. On the suspenders themselves I doubled over the end fabric and stitched buttonholes, I also stitched where the fabric crosses the body.

The pearl beads and embellishments were my favorite parts! I sewed on a small silver heart, strung the pearls and attached the other end with a small silver 'L' for lilah's name. I made the pattern out of a paper sack and I did make 'trial pants' to test out how I wanted to piece it all together and pin point sizing issues (lilah has a long body). I hand stitched it all together.

I have room for improvement on the suspenders and would like a more stretchy material. It bothered me to leave the edges of the ruffle fabric unhemmed because I want a more finished look. If I made them again, I think I would cut a matching satin liner, use fusing tape to hem the edges of that and then attach the ruffle bottom to the satin with fusible interfacing so that it was a little cleaner and crisper and also I like satin clothes for lilah to help keep her coat without tangles. If anyone decides To make pants too please share them! I had a lot of fun and plan on trying out more styles of pants :) we usually make dresses and who doesn't love a fabulous dress?! Our fave, but turns out pants can be fun and frilly too!

You made them ????

Well, I guess that's what I get for skipping ahead. They look store bought, very impressed for sure. I myself have not had the chance to try doing the pants yet. I do want to one day.

I am especially flattered to have such a compliment from you :) thank you very much.

That is so sweet !! :D



FYI... A pair of these would be Great gift if a certain pup name Lilah should by chance be assigned a SB by the name of Ruby Bella for the GE. ;)


Practice makes Perfect . . LOL

We will most definitely keep that in mind! :D I know we have been eyeing your gorgeous creations oh potential sb!

Absolutely Adorable! Are you going to be selling these? If so let me know because I just love them!!! You did an amazing job and your fur baby looks so cute in them too!

so cute!

Aww, thanks you guys! :love:

Do you have any kind of pattern you found for these that you could share? They are toooooo cute!

Thank you :embar: I was excited to see that they have come out with more colors for the ruffle fabric too recently. I would so share if I had a pattern but I'm afraid I just 'winged it'. I did study other dog pants patterns that would show up under google images (I don't have a printer or anything but I am sure there are some good printables) to get an idea of how best to frame the shape. The best way to do it seemed to be kind of like two letter 'J' s back to back and I just measured the approximate diameter of legs and belly to decide how to measure it. I used a paper bag to draw my pattern on and I ended up with a draft or two ;) if you make a pair I would love to see some pics posted! :)
