I just wanted to share my latest creation for the almighty spoiled little fur babies; a water proof quilt!

Izzy boo enjoyed a nice snooze on it last night curled up in my arms. I made it nice and big (40x40 +) so that I could curl up under it with a pig on me, no fear of being peed on!

Anyways, here it is. IMG03349-20130124-2058.jpgIMG03355-20130124-2103.jpgIMG03360-20130125-1045.jpg

I used this vinyl plastic stuff in between the layers. It sounds kind wierd, but I have other lap pads from may that have help up through being washed and dried every week, so it works pretty well :p

Nice job! I love the pattern! Let me know if you make them to sell. I may be interested. I would try it myself.... but I only know that very basics of sewing. NOTHING ABOUT QUILTING! You are very talented!

I love the fabrics, I used the same ones about a year ago to make a quilt for my cousin's new baby! I'd show you a picture but I don't have a scanner at this house. :eek:hmy:

What a great idea! You should get little labels made with your name that you can sew into them. You should come up with a cute, creative name for them.

That is genius!

I always use a (small) waterproof mat while having lap time with Tigger, but she always finds ways to pee on everything except the blanket. This will change my life. (And my couch lol)

LOL awh well I'm going to be sewing up around 8, I went and got fabric! If anyone is intrested, pm me for a link to my etsy :)

I've been using my large one and I'm in love with it. I'm going to make up some smaller ones for laps though :)

I'm so excited! I don't know what to call them, any ideas @pinky?

I was just talking to my best friend and she suggested critter quilts ! I love it.

I'm working on the second one right now, then I'll post pictures and show you all! I'm so proud of them. I came up with the patterns myself too.
