My Furry Valentine

For the one who waits at the door to welcome you home and doesn’t mind if dinner’s a little late, the one who thinks you’re just as lovely dressed up as you are in your jammies, and the one who thinks your morning breath is no big deal… Give the one who loves you unconditionally a special spot to rest his head.

1. Repurpose an old standard pillowcase by filling it loosely with cedar chips. Use a liquid fabric glue to secure the opening to prevent them from spilling out.

2. Cover both sides of the pillowcase with batting to add additional cushion. Fit the pillowcase to a top and bottom piece of fleece, leaving five inches of border around it to cut the ties.

3. Cut out a square on each corner and one-inch strips along each side. Tie the top and bottom fleeces together with these strips, securing the cedar chip-filled pillowcase inside.

4. Use a spare piece of fleece to cut out a heart, your furry Valentine’s name or initials, or another pattern of your choosing, and affix it to the top fleece with the liquid adhesive.

Special thanks to Patch for his eager participation.
