Tooth Fairy Pillows
I recently created a tooth fairy pillow to add to The Sewing Fairy range
When the tooth fairy has to visit its nice if she can easily locate the lost tooth & leave her calling.
Our tooth fairy pillows do just that, they feature a handy pocket on the front for your child to place their tooth, the pocket is big enough for the tooth fairy to enter & swap the prized tooth for whatever she chooses to leave behind.

Bag o’ bags
I am sooooo happy with the colour combo I chose for this one. Originally I was going to use black fabric where the green is but when I dug a little deeper in my cupboard & found the green it was just perfect, dont you think??
When I find out which lucky celeb receives this bag I will update you all

A new bag for my laptop.
Remember back in October lat yr my darling beloved bought me a laptop for my birthday? Well I had an old bag soft briefcase from my partyplan days that it fitted in perfect but it’s boring its plain black & blurgh.
So today I finally did something about it I got out the paper, pencil, ruler & my brain to make a pattern that would fit my laptop. After a couple of hours I had the pattern all nutted out & the fabrics cut Then I stitched it all together only to rip it apart & start again.
But glad I did !! This is the end result
what do you think?
Art Time
My kids love being creative & I think more kids should be given the oppornity to paint, draw, model with clay, playdough or whatever. I know it is messy but hey kids=mess LOL. Perhaps its because if I dont create something daily I feel blah & thats why I love it when the kids are being messy………..oops creative.
Once the server decides to play the game I am going to be putting these up on The Sewing Fairy
Anyway let me show you what I am going on about. Its my new Art Smock that I designed & tested yesterday
I am very happy with how these turned out, they have embroidered paint splats on 1 sleeve, which I digitised myself , and a paint palete next to where the name goes on the pocket.
Will be making them in red, blue, pink & purple.
What do you think?
Library Totes
Been at the machines again, this time its Library bags for some lovely young girls. I have made other products for these girls & know they really are rapt when their name is on something as you dont find thier names on stuff you can buy ready made. They should get them shortly in the mail Hope they like them
Happy Reading Girls

Keep those nappies tidy
We all know that babies poop alot!!
No I dont have a baby & wont be having anymore babies, I have made this as part of my product range for The Sewing Fairy.
I am really pleased with how it turned out
What do you do with your old blue jeans??
Why you make bags of course
Years ago I used to make these all the time I love them you can store soooo much stuff in them. Lately there has been a resurgence in interest in them & I have started making them again. They are proving popular chrissy & birthday pressies for many young ladies. 
No 2 are ever the same as I just create as I go on these & have had nothing but good words said about them
sewing, business & flu
sure dont mix well!! I have been very sick for the last 3 days & hating every minute of it! The machines didnt even get turned on for 2 days!! And for anyone that knows me that is just unheard of except for christmas & boxing day!!
Anyway before I got sick I had been sewing up a storm so I will fill the rest of the page with photos & tell you all to run your virus scan dont want you getting this nasty bug I have LOL
