DIY Reversible Dog Bandana
If you’re looking for a fun and easy project to make for your furry friend, a DIY reversible dog bandana is the perfect choice! Not only is it a stylish accessory, but it’s also practical and you can customize with different fabrics to suit your dog’s personality.
Let’s Do This!
Materials / Tools
- 2 fat quarters or two fabric squares 13 1/2” x 13 1/2”
- Ruler
- Rotary cutter and mat or scissors
- Fabric marker
- Thread
- Point turner and presser
- Sewing machine
- Iron
Steps
Start by cutting two rectangles that measure 13 1/2” x 13 1/2” x 19”. These will be the main pieces of your bandana.
Cut 2” from each end of the triangle. This will be the casing where the collar will go through.
Fold the short edges 3/8” and press them with an iron. Stitch along these edges to secure them.
Pin the right sides of the fabric pieces together, making sure the edges match.
Stitch across the top and the “V” section of the bandana.
Clip the point to reduce bulk, then turn the bandana right side out. Use a point turner to push out the corner for a crisp finish.
Press the bandana flat with your iron.
Use a fabric pencil to mark a stitch line across the bandana to create the casing for the collar. Stitch along this line.
Top stitch across the top and the “V” section, stopping at the casing stitching to give the bandana a polished look.
Give the bandana one last press to make sure everything is neat and flat.
Thread your dog’s collar through the casing and let your pup strut their stuff!!
Final Thoughts
Tigger’s neck measure 17 1/2” and his collar is 1 1/2” wide. The straight edge is 14” long. This bandana fits Tigger perfect. If your pup is smaller or larger just adjust the triangle accordingly to fit.
If your pup’s collar is wider than 1 1/2″, measure collar then add 1/2″. Cut ends off by that measurement. Example – Tigger’s collar is 1 1/2″ so I cut 2″ off the triangle ends.
Now your pup has a stylish new accessory that can be reversed for a different look. This DIY reversible dog bandana is a quick and easy project that adds a personal touch to your dog’s wardrobe. Happy sewing!
I’d love to see your pup sporting their fashionable accessory. Drop pics in comments!
