Tooth Fairy pillow

Materials

You will need 5 different fabrics, some ribbon and a piece of white felt.

Cut:

9 inch square for the back
3 1/2 inch x 9 inch rectangle for the front and top
6 inch x 9 inch rectangle for the front bottom
9 inch piece of ribbon and some more for the hook and bow
3 inch square for the pocket

Method

Stich both rectangles to form the front and iron to one side.

Stitch the ribbon directly on the seam.

Make a bow with a ribbon and stich in place.

Cut pocket, make a fold around all sides and stitch very close to the edge.

Draw a tooth on the white piece of felt and cut. Stitch to the pocket.

Stitch to the cushion on an angle.

Cut an 8 inch ribbon, fold in two and attach it to the top of the front top rectangle. This will serve as a hook to hang the cushion on the door handle.

Place both back and front rectangles right side together and stitch all around leaving an opening on the bottom part to insert the filling.

Turn inside out clipping corners of excess fabric first.

Fill cushion and close opening by hand when finished.

Hang on door. I added a bought store organza bag inside the pocket to collect the tooth more easily.
