Hi! I'm Taya from Ladybug Bend. I am very excited to release my Tooth Fairy Pattern today for the Designer's Challenge!

My 6 year old lost his first tooth a couple months ago. As soon as it started to get a little wiggly, he started talking about how I was going to make him a super hero tooth fairy pillow. I'm not sure where he got this idea, but once he starts talking about something, he doesn't stop. He was asking me about this at least a couple times a day. I finally came up with a plan and made his pillow, and he lost his tooth about a week later.

He loved his pillow, and I debated about whether to make a pattern to sell or not. When I remembered about the Designer's Challenge, I knew I should do the pattern! The challenge is to make a pattern that isn't already offered in the PDF pattern industry, and also is outside of our own comfort zone. This certainly is out of my comfort zone since my other patterns are clothing, shoes and hats! So, I got to work. I started with just the super hero, and ended up with 9 different options!!! After I made them all, I just couldn't narrow it down, so I have included them all in this 1 pattern. Everything in the photos below is included! The options are: Pirate, Princess, Prince, Ballerina, Clown, Cowboy, Fairy, Ninja, and Super Hero.

Each pillow has a pocket in the back to hold the tooth/money (please note that the cotton skirt version shown in the photo below is not included in the pattern). The pattern also includes instructions on how to add a ribbon to hang your pillow from the door knob or bedpost. This makes the Tooth Fairy's job so much easier!!! No more groping around under pillows, risking getting caught.
