That is what I would do. Love animals but sometimes they make me crazy. (Not shoot the dog, patch the batting).

Hope you have calmed down, but actually, you are probably sleeping now.. It's fixable.. and you lucked out big time with it only being the batting...I hope you addressed the situation with the guy when it happened.. My favorite is when I get mad "what were you thinking" then I take him out of the room, and he has a time out on the other side of the door way. My guy has never destroyed anything, but he learned the habit of talking to me in a screeching voice when he wants something.. That's the draw back of sending him over to my brother's when I'm not home..His dog is very vocal, and needy..
Hope you are getting back into the quilting room, and you are on your way to finishing.. I on the other hand am going to fight with my Singer 66 that just started leaving birds nest on the back side..I ripped them out, but now have to investigate why.. I will get over it..

I agree with everyone else... piece a new "patch" in... and once quilted, no one will ever know...

You have a great sense of humor! I scared my poor dog to death when I screamed at her when the batting ripped. She ran out of the room and will probably never want to enter again! My husband even ran up the stairs to see what was soooo wrong! Well, had my morning tea and I am now heading back upstairs to tackle the batting issue. Thank you everyone for your help and for the laughs!!!!
