Sewing Pattern Tutorial: Make a dog coat from a baby bib

Erika Lindquist from Sew Doggy Style shares a tutorial at Dollar Store Crafts showing how she made a doggy coat from a baby bib and a grocery tote. (Obviously this only works for a smaller dog – or a really big bib.) This is such a cute idea! The fabric from the tote makes the lower portion of the doggy coat. If you don’t have a bag you want to cut into, you can always just use a fabric remnant for that part of the coat. Get the tutorial.
