A Pug Pillow fit for a Pug

A while back on one of our numerous fabric shopping adventures, Robot Child #1 and I came across some Pug fabric.  Yes, there are other doggies on there, but most importantly, there are PUGS on that fabric!!  I'm sure you can imagine the squealing that commenced from my child and, um, er, myself. Haha.  Not ashamed. It's PUG fabric people!  And the pug even has a little curly tail.  Awwwww.
There are Pugs on that fabric!
So, we had an extra pillow lying around and decided that Mimi the pug, should really have a pug pillow.  I mean, really, what else was this fabric created for?


I made it with a zipper enclosure on the end because Mimi likes to destroy anything that has fluff inside.  If it's a stuffy she knows it and her main goal in life is to kill any stuffy and eat it's insides.   So, we put a kibosh on that idea.

This pillow took all of maybe 10 minutes.  But the pure joy of it was showing it to Robot Child #1.   Mimi is technically her pug and she was SO excited for Mimi's pillow.  Our love for pugs originated from RC #1. Her favorite thing is pugs...I'm not sure where this came from, but she loves their goofiness.  Pugs live to make people happy and laugh.  Pugs are the clown of all dogs and she lives up to that title.  I bought Mimi for RC#1 for her 9th birthday and it was the BEST.DAY.EVER.  Seeing her face when we picked her up from school with Mimi...there were tears!  It was so awesome.  I loved it.  Mimi came to us when we were going through some rough times together as a family and she was definitely a therapy dog for us.  We ♥ her.  (In case you couldn't tell).  :)


Pug photo shoots are always entertaining.  It's like she knows she's being photographed for a human blog, and is so utterly disgusted by the idea.  That and having to be leashed up inside because she's a wanderer.

At any rate, I do think she loves her pillow.  It's a perfect pillow, fit for a spoiled rotten Pug. :)

  2. Oh what a great post! I love seeing your adorable little pug. I didn't know pugs were clowns. (My favorite kind of dog!) I did know they are very loving. From the pictures it looks like she's a very happy. I love the pillow, the fabric and the way you put a zipper in it. Great job. (Thanks for the comment on my post - I really appreciate it!)
