- 1). Place your dog's water and food dish on the floor the way you normally set them out. Measure the length and width of the area they take up. Cut two pieces of cotton fabric and two pieces of iron-on vinyl 6 inches wider and longer than the area of the dishes.
- 2). Set your iron to medium with the steam function off. Peel the backing paper off one of the vinyl pieces. Place the vinyl sticky side down on the right side of one of the fabric pieces. Place the backing paper over the top of the vinyl. Press the iron down on the vinyl for eight seconds. Move the iron to a new area of the vinyl, and press it there for eight seconds. Repeat this process to iron the entire area of the vinyl. Flip the piece over, and repeat the process on the wrong side of the fabric holding the iron for four seconds, rather than eight, each time. Repeat with the other piece of vinyl and fabric.
- 3). Place the two vinyl-covered pieces of fabric together with the wrong sides facing each other. Sew the two pieces of fabric together around the perimeter with a 1/2-inch seam allowance. Trim the seam allowance to 1/4 inch with pinking shears.
