Easy Pet Bed

Copyright © 2007 - Written by SewDelish blog.

Here's what SewDelish had to say about their tutorial:  This is a perfect little bed for a new puppy or kitten and also for little toy dogs who love a little bit of comfort.  This quick and easy pet bed is made using an old pillow that has been cleaned. A new one of course be used, but I wanted to use a pillow that was still ok but had gone too flat for my liking.Pillows get replaced reasonably regularly in our house, so this is a good way to make good use of them once we don't sleep on them anymore.  These were made for my little chihuahua who is 12 years old and would sleep on my own pillow all day if given the opportunity!

Here's what Melissa had to say about her tutorial:  This is a project that can be completed in an afternoon (or two afternoons if you’re painting). It’s a great way to spruce up a boring dresser. I was inspired to cover my daughter’s dresser after finally completing a quilt for her bed and wanting the furniture to match.

Let's Make a T-Shirt Pillow!

Here's what Deena had to say about her tutorial: A few days ago, I spent the afternoon making a t-shirt pillow with my 4 year old son. He was actually quite impressed with the outcome and since I don't sew as much as I used to, he had lots of questions about the sewing machine and what pins were used for. LOL

These pillows can be made from any size t-shirt that's in good condition. We made two of these gems, and both were made from "too small" t-shirts that my boys loved. (What boy doesn't like camo?)
