I have made the smaller version. If I get too large, it gets kind of difficult to sew on my machine.
I made several of these pet beds for the local animal shelter.

This is an excellent pattern. I have 2 of these beds, one for a small dog and one for a medium dog, both made with cotton fabric, I had to replace the bottom in one but they both have lasted over 15 years. Cotton fabric is the best, fleece is a giant hair magnet. It's almost impossible to get the dog hair out of it so I don't recommend it. The cotton ones can be thrown in the washing machine too. My dogs really liked them (unfortunately for them, the cats liked them too).
