    Basically this is a large rectangle, with smaller rectangles attached to the sides for arm pieces. I free motion quilted each piece with large stippling, fitted them, then trimmed and bound them. I used a few upholstery pins to secure them in place.

    Voila!
    What a wonderful idea. It is beautiful. So is the pup ... and now your sofa and the pup can remain beautiful together!
