Misses’ Top, Dress, Pants and Dog Coat by McCall’s, M7816

I once spent way too much money on a matching hoodie set for myself and my first dog. He hated it and wore it once. I put it away, thinking I would probably get another similar-sized dog in the future. The dog that landed in my lap is twice his size but totally willing to wear clothing.

Enter McCall’s with this super comfortable pattern for a loose-fitting top or dress, which has a hood with drawstring, ribbed knit cuffs, plus length and hem variations. The fitted pull-on pants are designed with an elasticized waist, ribbed knit cuffs, and side-seam pockets. The dog coat has a front zipper closure and hood. The only thing missing is a kangaroo pocket, and that’s an easy add-on.

Find this pattern in women’s sizes XS to XXL (bust 29-1/2 inches to 48 inches, waist 22 inches to 41-1/2 inches, hip 31-1/2 inches to 50 inches).

Dog Pile Quilt Pattern by Pen and Paper Patterns

For animal lovers who quilt, Dog Pile and Kitten Around are playful designs that deliver charm in every 18-inch block.

Dog Pile is the canine companion to Kitten Around—a traditionally pieced quilt finishing at 48-1/2 inches square. The 11-page pattern includes diagrams, fabric-cutting labels, and a fun coloring page to help plan your layout.

Kitten Around is equally delightful, with a mix of conventional piecing and optional paper piecing for the whiskers. If you prefer to skip the paper piecing, the pattern includes an alternate method.
