top done and ready to go to my friend Jami and I made a dog bed
for the shelter...1 yard of fabric for the outside cover and a couple month's a trimmings off of blocks, from straightening fabric, the dog ears off half square triangles. The shelter loves them because they're all cotton and they can be washed and dried a million times and they usually send them home with the dogs when they get adopted...I can make more.Fabric Added this Week: 0 yards
Fabric Added Year to Date: 10.75 yards
Fabric Used this Week: 10 yards
Fabric Used Year to Date: 35.75 yards
Total Busted: 20 yards

Nice quilt Carol. Madeline just got a new doggy bed. She thinks she hot stuff now. lolol
Wow...you did great on stash busting this week...I'm thinking I really should keep track of my stash as well! Because it's always so interesting when people post their yardages!
I'm amazed! Wow you are doing some serious stashbusting! That doggy bed looks oh so comfy for one lucky pooch; and the quilt will be a special gift.
20 yards busted! Way to go! I love the quilt that you are working on.
Some little pouch is really going to be happy with their new bed!
Love your plaid quilt! I love plaids but they scare me to death working with them. Love the idea for the dog bed, I could also do that for our shelter!!!

love the plaid/stripe quilt.
What a SPECIAL gift you are giving to the dog shelter!! How thoughtful of you!! You continue to inspire me!!
nice quilt top there!!! love all those fabrics together.
the dog bed is wonderful
I never thought about making them to donate, I have a few yards of fabric I could do that as well.
glad you had a productive week!
Kathie
A very productive week, indeed!
Now that is a great idea! I should make up some little doggie cushions for my guys. You are plowing through your stash!
I love the idea of the dog pillow. I wonder if our shelter would want some.
What a cool idea for a dog bed. I'll have to mention this to my sister -- she's volunteering at our local shelter to help wash the dogs so someone will love them!
Your work is headed off to some very wonderful places where it will be loved and appreciated to the nth degree. Way to go!
What a wonderful thing to make for the dog shelter!
I love that first picture! You've used a lot this week. Congratulations!
Love the homespun quilt. The doggie bed is so nice of you. What a great idea!
Look at you go, you stash buster you :) Love the soldier quilt, what pattern is it? So you stuff the doggy bed with scraps, what a great idea. I think I finally threw my big bag of too small scraps away. I knew as soon as I did I'd find a use for them lol!
You are a stash buster, that's for sure!
I love the quilt, and what an excellent idea for a dog bed! Totally washable, and the ultimate in recycling. Thank you for the great idea, Carol.
Thats a really sweet thing to do; Im sure the dogs love their beds!
Good work on the stash busting too!
Some lucky little dog will love that new bed! Should I send you my scraps?
very nice Carol! I love the quilt...and the dog bed...awesome...you fill it with scraps? I would love to make some for our shelters up here in NH!
