QNS, make the quilt! If he wants one it's up to him to take care of it. Boy, I'd hate to have his veterinary bills! Heartworm and flea meds for that bunch would break the bank. Let alone food....
My doggie sleeps on my bed with me, so I can't have a pretty quilt on my bed. I have an old funky bedspread on top that can catch the dog hair and be washed.
You're right... waiting on test results is the worst. I have a colonoscopy on Friday so tomorrow is that 'wonderful' day of colon prep!
