Clip an old pillowcase to your quilting table and drop all of them in there, when there is enough to make a comfy bed, don't over-stuff cos of the weight when you wash, stitch the end together, and you have a nice little comfy bed for your favourite fur-baby.
My added tip is to add another pillowcase which you can wash when needed. :idea:

My friends know that I am a fabric "collector" and pretty resourceful, so they give me bags and boxes of al kinds of fabric.
I offer my "new treasures" to other sewing friends. What they and I can't use, gets cut up and put into fabric bags for the Critters.
Just sent 28 of these little "beds" to local Cat Rescue Group. they loved them!
