Quiet Books

I've started making a quiet book. I started quite a while ago with a lot of felt. Since then there has been a lot of cutting (I mean, A LOT) and sorting through fabric and beads and other crafty supplies generously given to me by Kathy. Things are finally starting to come together.

Ahh what a cute ladybug!!

Did you see that one coming? My weird looking ladybug babies?? I started the spots with a hole punch but it just wasn't getting the job done. Now we like to say they have character.

I have a lot of love for this fabric (hence the flowers cut out of it). These will button on the page.

Yeah for balloons! I think I'll write POP on the side of the page. These will attach with snaps.

This is Sasquatch. Can you tell that he is a teddy bear? We laugh whenever we look at him now. He's just Sasquatch to me.

These have a little farther to go. A mitten on the left (complete with face) and a kitty on the right (with a bow to tie. I think. We'll see once we get there)

I'd like to take more of the credit. And while I am working hard at it - Kathy is doing all of the sewing. So she rocks! And someday I'll work on that part myself...

But I'm doing LOTS of work - I promise. Did you notice all the tracing and cutting and pinning etc?? That's me.

I've got more pages to come! I just didn't want to overwhelm you in one shot :)
