Ladies, this is not strictly embroidery (except for his face) but, I hope you will enter into the spirit of good humour - laughter is the best medicine!

This one is really for Ron111otter whom, I hope, will be 'rolling in the aisles' with laughter. Just to say Pat you are not the only person who treasures teeth (see ron111otter's comments in Another recyclable (red belt) in projects) - I made this elf for my Grandson so that he could leave a penny under the pillow for a milk tooth which fell out. This tooth is in the elf's pouch and has been there for 21 years!! Taking sentimentality too far????
I wonder. . . .

Must be same as our "tooth fairy". This makes my little pillow with a pocket look pitiful, but the grand daughters didn't know it!!!

Thank you Shirlene. This was in response to Ron111otter's remarks to my 'Another recyclable' belt project. I'm still laughing about either human or canine teeth. (Pat wont mind me saying this)

He's adorable elenu, but are you sure he only keeps a tooth in the pouch. The high colour on his rosy cheeks hint at a hidden flask perhaps??

by elenu 17 May 2008

Yes, he's been well looked after Ibrow . . . . & Tolgamum . . . . even elves have their secrets you know.
