Reversable Hedgehog Snuggle Bag

Reversable Hedgehog Snuggle Bag

I recently became the proud mother of a baby hedgehog. Wanting to spoil him something awful, I decided that he needed the nicest, coziest snuggle bag in existence. I knew that if I just made a regular ol' bag, the visible seams and thread could get tangled on his feet and injure him, so I decided to make a fleece reversible bag with completely hidden seams, so he can have all the fun with none of the hurt! Here is how it is done:


What you'll need:
Fleece-about 4 12"x12" squares, at most. (depending on the size you want, of course)
Scissors
Sewing machine (just to make your life easier)

Step 1Cut material

Cut material
First cut your material.

You will need to cut 4 pieces of fleece; two of each color/pattern.

For this instructable I cut mine into 10x12" rectangles, but any size should work.

I work at a wildlife hospital, and this would be perfect for our baby opossums. They have delicate fingernails, so the lack of threads to get caught on is great, and they naturally love pouches to sleep in. We have a few already, but they're pretty flimsy, and this looks nice and sturdy. I'll look for the instructions with the plastic rim, as they also tend to flatten any fleecies they're given to burrow into...

Aaaaw -I wonder if my guinea pigs would like them? Do they stay open much ? (oooh a peice of plastic in the opening maybe like a hat brim...) ty for the idea he's a lil cutie!
Oh did I mention when I was in 3rd grade I really wanted a hedgie-pog* and my mom drove me out to the country "Just to look" at a litter oh babies; I talked so much about them on the way I almost got her her first speeding ticket?
She got let off with a warning because I cried and said "mommy don't go to jail!"

Two things:

1) I think my kitten would probably love it, too (may have to make it a little bigger)

2) Your hedgehog is ADORABLE. Just want to kiss his little face.

Don't know much about those charming critters (hedgehogs)--I'd guess what you're telling usmis that they like warm, dark, cozy little adits in which to secret themselves. I love the pictures, as well as the clarity of your instructable. Your guy is so cute! Thanks.
