Pearl's Sun Dress inspired by Butterick 4790

I made my dog Pearl a new sun dress using a vintage floral sheet inspired by Butterick 4790.  I attempted to make this pattern for myself when I started sewing and it came out horribly.  I drafted a mini doggie version and I love it.  

For pictures of Pearl modeling her dress visit my blog.

Also, the first version of this dress I made is here.

Thanks and enjoy!

Vintage Pooch

The pattern:

The coat:

It's winter in Melbourne and Mai li, my 13-year old dog has arthritis.  I decided to make her a wool coat from this amazing vintage pooch pattern I bought last year. It has a black wool lining, pearlescent press stud closings and black braided trim.  Very silly and cute! More photos on my blog here.
