32 towels/blankets for the local humane society. I bought a bunch of fleece and terry cloth at a garage sale a year ago and finally got around to getting these blankets made. They range in size from 18x24 inches all the way up to 30x30 inches - depending on how much fabric I had. Some of the designs are from Embroidery Library. I made the ones with the hearts. Thanks for looking :)

They were very easy to make. I cut the fabric in rectangles (or squares) then used a plate to round the corners. I ran them through the serger to finish the edges and then embroidered the designs in the corner so the dogs could lie on the blanket and show off the pretty designs.

That was a lot of work! Great job

It really didn't take that long. I did it assembly line and it only took a few days. The hardest part was figuring out what designs worked best. I ended up using the heart and paws the most (the one I designed and digitized) because it stitched out so quickly.

Thank you. I love doing things like this. I sew all kinds of things for pets and send them to various shelters and pet rescue agencies in western Canada. All out of my own pocket - I do not claim any deductions or take money for this.

these are just the best! the shelters will appreciate them but more importantly the animals will love them as their very own! I do hope that they can go with them when & if they become adopted as it will be their life long companion in most cases! Our "baby" has had his pillow since the trip home with us 7.5 yrs ago. A good job from the heart!
