Dog beds I made today.

Dog beds I made today.
I made two beds for the dogs. We put them in the garage at night when it is cold. The pictures are both sides of one bed. The other is exactly the same. I closed it with Velcro so I can replace the stuffing after washing the beds. I made them like large square pillow cases.
I bought the fleece fabric at Goodwill already cut and snipped for a rag quilt. Never again will I sew a rag quilt pre-snipped! I stuffed both of them with scraps out of one of my bins. The thought was to use the entire tub for stuffing........LOL......I barely used half of it.
Enjoy!
p.s.
Yes, that is a fancy looking rug on the floor of my garage. And yes, my Dodge pickup deserves such a cozy place to park in........LOL

Great idea! I made my dog a blanket. I had scraps of fleece left over from making baby blankets (I square up the fabric and crochet a border on them for gifts). Anyway I took 4 pieces of boy scrap fleece and sewed them together. He loves it...and a good way to use up scraps. My 2 pups currently have 2 beds. 1 in their kennel and 1 in my sewing room. My Eddie likes to drag it around too.

I am making some dog beds using the leftovers fabric & batting from quilters and I was trying to figure out that making a pillowcase out of fleece so that the pillowcase could be removed to wash instead of the entire bed. An organization out here burned out there washing machine motor because of the weight of the dog beds when wet. Money is always tight with organization that are recusing critters.

The during the winter we try to keep the temp around 50 degrees. Same with the shop since that is where the other daughter sleeps. Mom and her don't get along, both are Alpha females. So my girl Chili Palmer has a room to herself....lol
