Ok, so I may be a little crazy about my Newfoundland she is a landseer, which is no small dog. My girl weighs 134 pds and is six feet if on two legs. I made her a very cute quilt with different dog prints and even paper pieced her name (Maggie) across the top as a large border. It's a queen size quilt for my not so tiny girl! We animal people are crazy about our pets. Glad to hear I'm not the only nut!!!

I did for my other three Dobies, but Emily only wants to be covered under the quilts on her (my) bed. I tried to cover her on top of the bed or on the couch and she takes off like I'm trying to smother her!

I hope k3n doesn't mind I'm showing you this instead of her- I wanted you to see the dog bed she made for her adorable dog, Dougal!

I have a similar project holding in the wings. My Golden Retreiver, Sara, (who passed away in 2002) used to have bandana's for every season, holiday and occasion. I called them her "party dresses". I've saved them all and have them cut and ready to be put in a quilt. I'm anxious to get that one done. Even though she's been gone so long, I still miss her terribly.

My greyhound 'nests' in the quilt on her bed... she can only have whole cloth or garage sale finds because of the amount of re arranging that goes into her making her bed. When she naps with us she sleeps under our quilt.

I am on number 28 of the kitty quilts for the kitties waiting for their forever homes in the Luv-A-Pet center. My own three don't have their own as they seem to appreciate ours more. I do plan to make a special one for the little 3 week old baby I'm fostering. Still have 5 weeks before he'll be ready to be adopted. My new goal is to do 2 kitty quilts each day. Lots of fun. Aren't our furbabies wonderful?
Until they all have homes,
Wendy B

Yes, the day we got our little Tara, I started a quilt for her. I even made a quilted night cage cover for our African Grey!
