I've been spending at least an hour a week this summer sewing. It sounds like nothing but it's been so fun to have that time set aside and I love that I'm getting some projects crossed off my list.
One of the things I wanted to make was this adorable tooth fairy doll. When I first saw it on Riley Blake Designs, I fell in love. It's so whimsical and so sweet {and it was designed by the two Elizabeths, who I happen to completely admire}. I pinned it and put it on my to-do list for Tater Tots {even though she won't be losing any teeth for a while}.
I whipped it up last week using some scraps I had lying around. I used a pink patterned fabric for the front and pink gingham for the back ...
... and pink chenille for the cute little pocket. {Unlike the pattern, I only used one thickness of fabric for the pocket because the chenille is so thick. I simply folded down the edges, sewed a top seam, and sewed it onto the doll.}
I also changed the face, using paint pens to add eyes and a tiny mouth.
Isn't it cute? It'll be such a sweet tooth holder when those baby whites start falling out.
If you like what you see, would you consider following me?
That's cute.
ReplyDeleteI like that you set an hour aside to sew. I need to do that for scrapbooking. :)
That would be a cute gift
