Transform Your Dog Wear Ideas Into Market-Ready Digital Patterns

Trying to figure out how to make patterns for every dog size feels overwhelming, right? You’re not alone. I remember feeling the exact same way—staring at a pile of sketches, unsure where to even start. But once I learned how to digitize and grade patterns the right way, everything changed.

That’s exactly why I created From Patterns to Profits—to take the guesswork out of it for you. In this course, I’ll walk you through: how to create digital patterns, easily grade them for any size, and get them ready to sell. No more frustration—just a clear, simple, step-by-step-by-step process that actually works.

  •  Digitize your patterns step by step using easy-to-follow methods. 
  • Grade for any size so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel for every new design. 
  • Market and sell your patterns so people can actually find (and buy!) your work.

Why Now is the Perfect Time

The pet clothing industry is exploding, and it’s not slowing down anytime soon. By 2032, it’s expected to hit $8.97 billion—because more and more pet owners want unique, well-made gear for their dogs. Just think of all the dogs you see these days wearing clothes. Somebody is designing those patterns… and that could be you!

If you’ve ever had an idea for a design but weren’t sure how to bring it to life, this is your moment to step up and say, ‘I can do this.’ Because you can!

Mark your calendars! The course officially launches in May 10, 2025.

How Much Can You Earn?

Digital dog clothing patterns sell for $6 to $15 each, with top Etsy sellers making thousands of sales.

But that’s just one way to do it. Pet fashion is part of a booming industry where top designers pull in six-figure incomes—and there’s so much room for fresh ideas.

Some designers manufacture their own products, where profit margins can hit 60%, while others license their designs to brands looking for the next big thing.

If you’ve ever dreamed of seeing your designs out in the world, now is the time. The demand is there—you just have to decide to go for it!

Your Creativity Has Value — Turn It Into Profit

  • Course Investment: $420 CDN ($297 USD) (Launching May 2025) – A one-time investment for lifelong skills.
  • Sell just 4 to 20 garments (priced between $50 to $150) to cover your investment. 
  • Or sell digital patterns (priced at $10 each) and break even with just 30 sales—something top Etsy sellers hit in months. 
  • Manufacturing? With 60%+ profit margins, a handful of sales could turn into serious income. 
  • Licensing? Brands are always looking for fresh designs—you could earn from your ideas without ever sewing a stitch.

You’ve Got the Creativity—Now Make It Work for You

You already have ideas. You already have the passion. The only thing missing is the know-how to turn those ideas into real, sellable designs. That’s exactly what this course gives you—a step-by-step process to digitize, grade, and market your patterns so you can finally start selling with confidence.

Whether you want to sell digital patterns, manufacture your own designs, or license your work to brands, the opportunity is there. You just have to take the first step.

Proof That It Works

With years of experience designing custom-fit dog wear and helping clients create patterns for dogs of all sizes, I know what works. I’ve also developed websites, eLearning platforms, and online courses for other artisans, assisting them in building their businesses. One of my recent projects includes helping a client launch custom dog waders, now selling at MuckyDog.com.

I’ve had the privilege of running a year-long membership where I guided people through the process of making custom-fit dog garments using my patterns. It was wonderful to see others find joy in sewing for their pets while learning new skills and creating something special for their dogs.  

In addition to my design work, I’ve spent years helping clients establish their digital brands and set up websites. This course combines all my experiences—pattern making, marketing, and teaching—into one comprehensive program designed to help you succeed in both the creative and business sides of dog wear design.
