A quick project; crate liner

I needed to make a crate liner for Holly's crate. I did have just an extra remnant of fleece in the bottom of the crate but she kept balling it up.

Holly... the trouble maker!
Today I made a quick project of sewing up a new crate liner for her. In my stash of fabric that I had put on the side for donation I had some bright, juvenile print of a double face pre-quilted cotton. I cut 2 layers to fit, basted them together and the bound them with some yellow quilt binding from my stash.

 While I was putting this quick project together, little Holly decided to raid my scrap bin. She was running frantically back and forth from the sewing room with a mouth full of fabric scraps depositing them in the big girls beds. It was so funny!

Who me???? This poor dog bed is filled with fabric remnants, bias binding, towels and who knows what else!

  1. Oh my gosh! Holly is adorable. And now she is officially one spoiled dog to have such a beautiful quilt in her crate. It amazes me how much energy you have and all that you accomplish in a week.

  3. One of the grand dogs is a dachsund who is always tearing up/hauling around his toys and other things. He is visiting this week. I really love the crate liner. Any chance of getting the measurements of the finished one? Thanks. mssewcrazy
