Ok, the Doggy on the left has been washed & dryed about 50 times (and he is the replacement of an identical doggie purchased several years earlier that was washed 100 times.....replacing an animal is harder than finding identical fabric years later.....anyway, I digress....) The Lamby on the right has been washed and dryied about 5 times. My kids dragged around animals rather than blankets when they were toddlers. This were my pre quilting days. The washer/dryer was hard on the long eyelashes of the Doggie, but everything else survived.
