A wiggly tooth is a big event in the life of a child, and tales of a gift giving tooth fairy make it all the more special. I created these playful boy and girl tooth fairies to add a bit of magical whimsy to this exciting occasion. Each has two pockets: a tiny one for the tooth and a larger one for the tooth fairy's gift. What a sweet little companion to lay next to your child's pillow. Completed tooth fairies measure approximately 7 ½” tall & 9 ½” wide. Using simple materials, you can also create a magic wand for your tooth fairy.

I've been sewing and crafting since I was a little girl growing up on a small farm in the woods of northern Minnesota, USA. In recent years I have focused on creating whimsical patterns that are inspired by my love of nature.
