Bizarrely it's the tiny pocket that takes the longest time. Once the pieces are cut out I'd say about 15 minutes to make each one. I tend to sew them all then stuff them separately with the kids! xJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06618367450900385828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4512115797894439080.post-75338417373362798772012-11-20T14:49:55.637+00:002012-11-20T14:49:55.637+00:00Yes!

She was scared of the tooth fairy and would go into hysterics at the thought of having the pillow in our shared room.
