Judy over at Sew Fun Quilts put a bug in my ear a few months ago about how she creates pillows for her kitties using her would-have-been-garbage scraps.
I decided this was a perfect idea to make Maggie a bed for the shop.
Using this cute Moda fabric from Pampered Pooch, I used a 1/2 yard cut & stitched up an envelope
I turned the raw open edge with a simple hem & started tossing in scraps. unprinted selvage edges, trims to square up pieces, bits of batting & the like.
Once full, I just stitched it shut & applied a pooch

Too cute!! And I love the pillow, too!!! Great job!
I save all my tidbits too for the same reason, I have 4 big ol dogs, and their beds always need more fluff.
Oh...Maggie is so cute! and looks like she really likes her new cute pink pillow. Perfect fabric choice for such a feminine little gal.
Glad you liked my idea. You can wash/dry them a few times before they get kinda lumpy. I'm still saving mine too.
What a great doggie bed! I probably have enough scraps for my two big girls too. :-) Maggie looks all smiles with her new bed.
