Unfortunately, you need the foam to put the fishy bed together.
You can get foam in rolls at WalMart it's very reasonable in price.
Havent looked at the directions for that one yet, I have for the house bed. Machine stitching all the sections and then putting them together by hand stitching. Too bulky to do with foam/material on the machine.

Not a clue about that yet myself. I haven't even got as far as cutting the fabric out yet...

Craftlady.. they have to be sewn by hand? I was hoping to do it on the machine......

sorry I am no help since i don't sew. I do know that it is a very difficult pattern and my mom who has sewn since I was a kid had a hard time with it. She hates making them because with the foam you can't sew it on the machine but you have to do some of it by hand through a couple layers of foam.
