Since I live in Kansas, and the state flower is the sunflower, I decided to design a Sunflower Fairy thread crochet bookmark, Or mount your own in a shadow box to add to a nursery, bedroom or any wall’s décor.

She is a fun fairy to make. The pattern includes picture tutorials as well as written instructions to take you step by step to completion.

She has been tested by three other talented people to catch any typos or errors and to help make the instructions easier for others to follow.

bedspread weight cotton thread (size 10) in the following colors:
16 yards peach (or choice of skin color)
20 yards fudge brown (or choice of shirt, hat trim and flower center color)
