This Fabric Basket Bed is super easy to sew and is great for Small Animals. The best part is you can put your own spin on by switching up the sizes and fabrics used to make it. Traditionally fabric baskets are made with cotton and a fusible Pellon stabilizer, but if you want to use the basket it as a pet bed, you can switch out the cotton for softer cozier fabrics. You can also switch the Pellon with flex foam or batting to add some cushion.
Below I included measurements for a few different size baskets and a list of materials I used in this video.
