Dog Bed Cover

I have been wanting to make a cover for an old dog bed that has been chewed by June and patched. I got to do that this past weekend when we were deluged with rain. It turned out ok and was very easy to do, but I think I could have done without the buttons, because the very first time June laid on it she chewed one off.

Pillow Talk

My 3 oldest granddaughters Bella 8,Hannah 7 & Caecilia 7, came over last weekend to learn how to sew. We decided to make some pillows. We went to the store and they selected the fabric. They mostly watched me cut it, then they pinned it themselves and stitched it on the machine after I threaded it for them. They turned it and stuffed it. They all threaded their hand needles and Bella sewed her opening closed. She did a wonderful job, probably better than I can do it. I think they learned a little and had fun . The pillows came out beautifully. They enjoyed it so much they each made small bean bags to use as pillows for their stuffed animals.
