Quiet book
Over the weekend I started working on a quiet book for our expected addition to our family. Two pages are finished....
Nope, no whipping of cooking storms here by Resident Chef this weekend. We celebrated by ourselves so there wasn't much point in making anything too fancy. Quiet books are fun - time consuming, but fun.
Oooh... what a sweet little quiet book that's going to be. And the round pillow! I love it! The sock gnomes... they crack me up. lol Okay... going to check out the other links now...
It's so much fun to make things for grandkids - at least until they reach the age where they turn their noses up at anything handmade by Grandma. That day will come soon enough.
Good progress on the 'quiet book' little ones like the interaction features. And thanks for the links for fall/winter wraps and shawls, cooler weather is coming! Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
My grandmother had those round pillows as well. Brings back memories
ReplyDeleteFunny how so many 'old' things are being made new again.
DeleteI love children's quiet fabric books. Your first two pages are fabulous. I hope you had a happy Thanksgiving. Did your resident chef whip up a storm??

ReplyDeleteIt's fun to come up with the different pages (and I want to make it different than the one I made for his older brother).

ReplyDeleteQuiet books take a long time to make but they are definitely fun to do. I'm trying to make this one different from the one I made for his brother.
DeleteLoving your new little book. You always make such magical things for your grandchildren! Happy Thanksgiving! Christine xx

Yes, cooler weather is coming, unfortunately! My sewing progress came to an abrupt halt again - PMS Albatross is doing her hissy fit thing again.
DeleteI thinks we all had cushions like that one! Lovely pages for the quite book. Thanks for the links too.
