Since I made the dog piece to practice my machine stitching, I decide not to go crazy with it.
I thought it might make a nice pillow for Casey, so I added a saying and his name and his favorite things, a bone and lots of balls.
I used stuffing from an old pillow, so it is a bit lumpy, but I don't think he cares;)
If you would like to make your own dog piece or something to donate to your local shelter, you can get the pattern at Angie's Bits 'n pieces. You can find it under the free patterns.
And here he is, giving me his grin of approval.

Casey looks happy there are no cats around trying to horn in on his new pillow!
Debbie that turned out really cute - and yes, I think he likes it!
Cute! Happy dog!
Cute!
oh Debbie, that is so dang cute! Nice job! So happy that Casey approves.
Cute pillow and great photo. :)
I got a great chuckle out of his enjoyment!
Too funny! Although, I'm not sure he's giving his nod of approval . . . looks more like he saying, "Don't touch my pillow!" lol
You realize after Miss Dottie heard about Casey's pillow, she has pestered me for one of her own. i told her she would get it when we find a new place to move as she has enough stuff cluttering up this place.
(I think she bought it and I got a reprieve. Casey is very lucky to have you around!)

So cute! How did you get Casey to smile? Hahahaha
Oh Debbie - that is the sweetest picture!!! Obviously says he's loving it!!! One happy dog! Unfortunately, I think the Snowdog would chew his, and Gazoo - well, the pillow would likely be bigger than him (and, ultimately, also chewed by the Snowdog)! Smiles & Hugs, Robin
Casey's smile says it all!!! You did a wonderful job!
Casey is top dog with his new pillow!
How cute is this! I better not show this picture to Rylie and Molly or they will want one too!
Take care!P
