Balls, Tooth Fairy Pillows, & Blanket

Small Pattern Pieces
GREAT for Scrap Pieces of Fabric

The pattern pieces for the pillows, blanket and balls are small. Here is a great way to use up scrap pieces of fabric.

View A, B & C balls have 6 panels and can be made from two to six different colours of fabric. They can be stuffed with polyester filling or you can put a round balloon inside. If you are using a ballon inside, be sure small children are supervised when they are playing with them.

View D has six two piece panels and can be made from two or more colours. It is stuffed with polyester filling.

For the balls, we suggest using firm stretch knits such as Polarfleece, blanket fleece or sweatshirt fleece.

If you are using a balloon inside, you will need one piece of fabric 6” x 6” (15 cm x 15 cm).

View D 6” (15 cm) diameter :
12 pieces of fabric each 7” (18 cm) x 4” (10 cm) and polyester filling.

Blanket

We recommend using Polarfleece fabric for the blanket. The finished blanket is 36” x 48” (91 cm x 122 cm). It is made from 48 squares using two or more colours and each square is cut 6 1/2” (16.5 cm). If you purchase fabric, you can cut eight squares from 1/4 yard (0.20 m) of 60” (150 cm) wide fabric. The fringe can be made from one or more colours. For the fringe, use four pieces of fabric 4” x 18” (10 cm x 46 cm) and four pieces of fabric 4” x 24” (10 cm x 61 cm). For the backing use a soft knit or woven fabric such as single knit or flannel. The backing fabric is 48 1/2” x 36 1/2” (124 cm x 93 cm). Use scrap pieces of fabric and tear-away material for the optional star and heart appliques.

Tooth Fairy Pillows

For the tooth fairy pillows we recommend using Polarfleece, stretch velour, stretch velvet, single knit or double knit fabrics. Each pillow has a small pocket. You will also need a scrap piece of fusible interfacing some yarn or embroidery floss and polyester filling.
