Simple DIY Dog Shirt

I thought I would do something a little different from the usual crochet-themed post today. I hope you enjoy it! My dachshund puppy, Max, was not enjoying the cool and rainy weather we had last week. He wold come to me often, shivering and want to snuggle up next to me with his blanket. He has outgrown the little shirts and jackets he wore during the winter. So I decided to create a little DIY no-sew shirt for him. I found a sweatshirt in my "To Donate" box, which I felt would be perfect for this project.

So, naturally, this DIY Starbucks Cup Costume is right up my alley! Seriously, how cute is this!? If I had a kid, or needed a costume for myself, I would be working one of these up faster than a barista can prep a frappucino. photo: andrealebeau.blogspot.com What goes better with coffee than a
