Pattern of shoes for dogs

So, let's get started. To make a pattern, you need to take measurements from the feet. We take a sheet of paper. Stem it on the floor. Then take your pet. Put his paw on the sheet. Circle with a pencil, pulling out claws. Why do this? The fact is that when moving the animal will straighten them, and the shoes will be small. So, you have pawed - this will be the future pattern of the sole. Next, we define the rest of the boot parameters. Measure the height to the fifth finger, girth and distance to the fold of the foot. Cut out the pattern. Do not forget to leave the allowance on the seams (about one centimeter). If you have a large dog, then add two centimeters.

We transfer the pattern to the material, in our case, to the skin. Cut eight ovals. Now let's get down to the bootleg. It is done so. Draw a rectangle. It should be equal, according to the previous measurements, to the length of the feet to the wrist joint, and to the width - to the coverage of the shaft. Do not forget to make an allowance. If you plan to fix the shoes with the help of elastic bands, then we recommend adding the length of the kuliska. Make it equal to the width of the elastic band plus the allowance of one centimeter. Cut out the pattern. Skin to the skin with light stitches. Open out the workpieces for sewing shoes.
