With winter drawing ever nearer, and Bronwyn's reluctance to go out in cold weather, I decided it was time she had a new coat. I'm not sure she was thrilled with this idea, but it's her fault for being a wimp about the cold!
The fleece 'dog poncho' was made from a cheap pet blanket, picket up for 70p in a baragin shop. As fleece doesn't fray I didn't even need to hem the edges, making this the quickest sewing project yet!
To layer up over the top of the fleece I made a waterproof coat from an old umbrella donated to me by my friend Rachel - I even reused the red frill from the edge of the umberella, which I'm sure you'll agree Bronwyn looks thrilled about!
Her reputation as the best dressed dog in the village is safe for another season!
Heehee, in the first picture it kind of looks like Bronwyn is asking "Do I look fat in this?"
ReplyDeleteGood job being such a good dog momma. I love that you reused fabric, I cut up my shirts all the time to make stuff out of. :)
