A friend of mine gave me a quilt kit for my birthday. The fabrics had dogs, paws, and bones on them. Since Sadie's blanket she sleeps with was looking a little raggedy, I decided to make the quilt for her. The blanket that Sadie had been sleeping with was an old Care Bear sleeping bag I gotten for Christmas on year when I was a kid. She had chewed one corner when she was still in the crate, and I don't think she really like the zipper. The kit made a quilt that was 30.5X36 inches, but I added some other fabrics to make it bigger. Here you can see the finished top layer of the quilt...

Julio suggested that I use the Care Bear blanket because Sadie loves it so much. What I did was put right sides together and then sew around the outside. After that I cut the access fabric off and turned it inside out.

Instead of quilting it, I decided to tie the quilt.



As you can see Sadie enjoyed her warm new quilt last night.

Fascinated by the project. Shocked by the last picture! Sadie looks TOO human snuggled up!
