crafty

is one thing i'm really not.

however, when the dogs chewed up the eldest's sweet Mario themed tooth fairy pillow from Happy Felties last year, i just didn't think i could bring myself to shell out another $20 no matter how much i love Mary's work...  fortunately, we had a bit of a lull in tooth loss, so i didn't have to make a decision for a nice long while.

then, when one of his lateral incisors came out this week, the eldest insisted it was time to get to work on a replacement pillow, and that i should make it for him.  of course, it had to be Sonic themed...  i asked him to come up with the design he wanted, then we went together to purchase the felt (and embroidery floss for the sewing).  i cut out the fabric and put it together, trying to keep as close as possible to what he had envisioned, and then he handled the stuffing.

i think we are both kind of proud of it...

but i think i might be a little more proud of the munchables one i've got in progress for the younger son...

i'll guess i'll decide once it's done, after i see how it turns out!
