Now
I'll prepare the pattern piece for
the chest straps. Take the chest
measurement and divide by two. Then,
take that number and divide by two
again and add two inches (for the
overlap of the ends of the straps)
-- this is the length
measurement for the chest strap
pattern.
Draw a rectangle on the tag board
using this measurement for the
length, and 3 inches for the width
(adjust for smaller dogs).
The
chest measurement I'm working with
is 32 inches, so 32 divided by two
is 16, 16 divided by two is 8, plus
2 is 10 inches. So, my rectangle
measurement is 3 inches wide by 10
inches long. |
