With Baseball Opening Day around the corner (March 29), I knew I wanted to make dog beds for my two dogs using fabric from their respective teams. Ellie is a San Francisco Giants fan and Mindy is a Chicago Cubs fan.  Coincidentally, I am a Cubs fan and Mike, my husband, is a Giants fan. 🙂  We’re a two team family.

About 3 1/2 years ago I wrote a post about how I  make my dogs beds (Anatomy of a Dog Bed) and I used the same exact method today.  I still love the Velcro closure and using standard pillows for the “stuffing”.  All the dog beds I’ve made over the years have stood the test of time, although a couple have needed some repairs due to doggie nibbles.

Here are today’s (and yesterday’s) dog beds.

Until tomorrow,

I love my bed, Mom.  Do you think I could get a collar to match?
