So, I was wondering- do dogs use blankets ? (i.e. quilts) or do I need to make it a compete boxy type pad with foam or something in it? I'm leaning toward wanting to make them small blankets for their already existing beds. I have lots of denim and even some fabric that looks like mattress ticking.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Wanna know why I'm making these? She's getting married for her first time (she's 56 years old) has always just had pets- not children. When I looked on their bridal registry I noticed they had listed some pet stuff. I'd love to make her something for them since they have been a huge part of her life. If you have a better idea than a doggie blanket, please do tell....
I just made a pillowcase for my dog . I use it on a old pillow for her cage. They are easy to make and you can get a lot of cute prints at Joann's or the quilt store. She also loves to lay on our flannel quilts in the winter. Easy to make... just sandwich flannel and batting and tie it.
