A Ferret Eating Monster Bed OH MY!!

Bed in use

Even comes complete with a back door.
I posted my makings on Crafster.org and got alot of good comments, and people asking for a tutorial.
So I bring you my very first tutorial.
I've never really done a tutorial for anything so here it goes. So bare with me, this is my first tutorial.

This bed is a little different from the first one. I made a few adjustments to the to the design so the ferrets don't roll out of the mouth. Granted it is quite hilarious seeing ferret half asleep falling out of a bed that looks like it's eating them. Now the bottom is a bit more deeper, and the moth isn't as wide. Of course this pattern can be altered any way the maker feels like it.
I would love to see what other people make with this pattern.

That's fantastic! I have a cat that loves to burrow, and I think he would like something like this much better than the traditional cat beds. Since I only just got a sewing machine and have never used one, this might be a bit out of my league, but I'd love to try something similar! Thanks for the great idea!
You are a genius. This is so creative, funny, and well executed. Rock! I also think it's awesome that there's a back door.
First off, I love this idea. And I hope my ferret will too!
What fabric would you suggest for this? I have a bin of old stretch fabric that I thought I could use for the outside provided the inside fabric has no stretch. Do you think that would work?
I used upholstry fabric for the out side, and wool felt on the inside. I find that it holds up better against the ferrets, as well it won't stretch over time. The only problem that I see with using a stretchy fabric, is since it's a hanging hammock it might rip over time or stretch out.
