It is used to keep the outside cold air from sneaking into your home through the threshold of your doors and the sills of your windows.
Measure the area where your Draft Dodger will be placed (along the bottom of a door, the inside ledge of the window, etc.). This will help you determine how much fabric you will need. The average amount is about 36" x 8" - about a quarter of a yard. Select fabric and thread. Cut your fabric the same length as the inside of the bottom edge of your window (or along the bottom edge of your door), plus 114 inches (3.2 cm) to allow for a 58 inch (1.6 cm) seam X 6 to 8 inches (15.2 to 20.3 cm) wide. With the "right" sides of the fabric facing, fold the fabric length-wise and pin it together along the open edges, placing the pins about 4" apart. On the sewing machine, sew one end and the long side of the tube closed, using a 5/8" seam. Turn the tube right-side-out. Admire your work and place your Draft Dodger where it will serve its purpose! Use your imagination to create a whimsical draft door stopper. Add ears and a face to create a cat or dog. With a piece of red ribbon for a tongue and two beads for eyes, you can create a snake.
Turn this sewing project into a service project for a school or organization and donate the draft door stoppers to senior citizens or low-income families. You can use a Draft Dodger along the vertical, opening edge of a sliding door, too. Make your Draft Dodger long enough to extend the full height of the door opening, add a weight at the bottom to keep it from flopping around, and suspend it on a tack or a small nail inserted at the top of the sliding door opening. This is a great project for beginning sewers. An old pair of jeans can make a very durable draft door stopper. Cut the leg off as high as possible, stuff with filler and sew the ends closed. You will need a minimal amount of sewing experience to create this project. Always use caution when working with scissors, pins and the sewing machine.

I recommend some training … for the people in your home. You need to learn to put things away while you manage and redirect your dog’s behavior. Chewing is normal for dogs. It’s necessary for puppies who are teething, and it's a deeply satisfying behavior for many older dogs as well. Dogs love to chew objects that are heavily impregnated with the scent of human family members. Toys and reading glasses are common targets, and one company that sells replacement remote controls notes that “the dog ate it” is the second most popular reason for replacement after “we lost it.” These objects aren’t the only things dogs will chew, of course, and veterinarians have surgically removed everything from underwear and socks to piles of rocks from dogs. Just because your dog likes to chew on your stuff doesn't mean it's good for him, though — quite the opposite, in fact.
If you know your dog has swallowed a “foreign body,” as we veterinarians call them, you need to be prepared for a veterinary visit. Many times things “pass” without incident (and yes, you need to check stools), and emerge with little damage to the dog or the object, as in the case of the dog who swallowed diamonds. But if your dog stops eating or starts vomiting, you need to get to a veterinarian right away. Once there, your veterinarian will likely suggest radiographs. Exploratory surgery may be necessary if an obstruction is suspected, even if it doesn’t show up on an X-ray, as may be the case with cloth objects such as socks or stuffed animals. No one wants to put a dog through surgery, which is why prevention is a better solution. Get everyone in the habit of putting clothes in hampers, closing bedroom doors and putting eyeglasses and remotes out of reach. When you’re not home to observe him, it’s a good idea to confine your dog to a small, uncluttered part of the house, and give him a special chew object, such as a stuffed Kong.
