Wee Weenie Dog Outfits

Friday, May 13, 2011

Remember a few weeks ago when I told you about the Buda Weenie Dog Races? At the time I was questioning whether or not I had the time to pull together matching weenie outfits for the kids. Never one to let an occasion to dress in theme pass my by I made weenie outfit magic happen. Got a pair of kids and a love of dachshund? If you answered yes, today's I Love to Create post was made for you.


SUPPLIES
Cotton Fabric
Ribbon
Yellow Onesie
Yellow T-shirt
Aleene's Fabric Fusion Glue
Sewing Machine
Silhouette of a Weenie Dog
Thread
Aleene's Tack It Over and Over


Using the silhouette of the weenie dog I printed out I traced it onto cotton fabric. I cut the weenie dog out and cut it in half. Using Aleene's Tack It Over and Over half of the dog went on the onesie and the other on the T-shirt. I then stitched the dog halves onto the shirt and onesie.


Using Fabric Fusion Glue and ribbon I made Tallulah's side of the shirt a little more feminine with a few bows.


The trickiest part of this otherwise super easy project was getting a picture of my kids side by side so you got the effect. I knew and they looked cute and that is all that matters to me.


I also had to share an amazing pair of handmade weenie dog earrings I spotted at the races. Pretty much the second cutest crafty thing there.
