Yesterday morning my daughters school was shut on safety grounds because of a gas leak, so around 10.30 I had to go pick her up. So with my days plans out of the window we sat down to make a few things with felt. It took her ages to decide what to do and in the end she came up with tooth fairy bags and I made a cupcake pin cushion.
When I'm sewing I constantly put pins on the table and they disappear (damn that needle thief) so I thought I would make myself a small pin cushion to keep everything in a safe place other than the carpet (dangerous place to store them I know).
I had been trawling through the many websites looking for easy to make stuff and seen these the other day. So quick to make and my youngest found them ok.
The tooth gets put in the tooth part on the front and when the tooth fairy takes the tooth they leave the money in the little bag part :)
I'm back at work today after having 4 days off (long weekend) but I'm happy because I've only got 3 shifts then I'm off till the 21st of February. The kids are off school for half term so I booked the holiday so I could spend the time with them. So if the weather is rubbish (which I hope it isn't) I suppose there will be more felt crafting and the likes going on in this house whilst the kids are off.
