DIY No-Sew Fleece Dog Bed

Hello Everyone, I love this DIY No-Sew Fleece Dog Bed and I am so happy to share it with you! It's the easiest DIY dog bed tutorial you will come across and you can create a cute, new dog bed for your furry friend in hardly any time at all.

Our dog Cayli is the star of this DIY and she loves Rachael Ray™ Nutrish® DISH Dog Food. P.S. - I have a coupon for you! (Coupon Details: Save $4.00 on DISH, the coupon is good through this year, they can print 2x and it's not applicable online – must be redeemed in-store.)

This DIY No-Sew Fleece Dog Bed uses a standard (20 x 26 inches) pillow size. It's perfect if you have an extra in your house or are replacing your bed's pillows, why not upcycle it and make a dog bed for your pet?

This DIY No-Sew Fleece Dog Bed is perfect because it's light and portable and since it's so easy to make, you will want to make one for every room!

Cayli was a rescue dog and I have told her story before on the blog. She deserves all the love we can give her and as soon as we gave her this dog bed, she knew it was hers and has been sleeping with it every night! I want to make her another for other rooms.

It's actually the perfect size for our other, smaller dog Chloe, a Miniature poodle, but Cayli seems to like sleeping with it. It would be easy enough to double the size to make it larger and just use 2 pillows for larger dogs.

Cayli loves munching on the DISH Beef & Brown Rice Recipe flavor of Rachael Ray™ Nutrish® DISH Dog Food.

DIY No-Sew Fleece Dog Bed Step-By-Step Tutorial

Step #1 - Gather your tools & materials

scissors for cutting through 2 layers of fleece
2 yards of fleece material - you can do 2 of the same or 2 different fleece solids or patterns, you can match the colors of the decor of the room that you want to have the dog bed in.
1 standard pillow (20 x 26 inches)

Step #2 - Cut the fleece

Layer the 2 yards of fleece on top of each other. Place the pillow centered in the middle and using scissors, cut 1 inch strips almost to the pillow. It doesn't need to be exact but try to have even strips. When you get to the corners, you can either cut the corner out or just cut around in a "sunburst" pattern.

Step #3 - Tie the fleece

Tie the fleece into double knots making sure that the 2 pieces are lined up correctly. Leave 1 edge open so you can place the pillow in the middle.

Step #4 - Stuff the fleece with the pillow

Sandwich the standard pillow right in the middle of the pocket created by the knotted fleece and double knot the last edge. If you want to trim the edges shorter you can. I left them long and only trimmed any uneven edges. Give this to your dog to snuggle with!
