The Making of a Quiet Book
Thanks to pinterest, I decided I wanted to make Gage a quiet book. Initially the idea was to give myself plenty of time so that I could give it to him for his second birthday. Well, once I started I became... umm... pretty much obsessed. Almost every night after Gage goes to bed I work on the book. I am having so much fun making this silly little book! I bought the basic pattern from The Quilted Fish. I really like the general construction of her book, but have modified or made up most of the pages based on things I have seen online. Anyway, here is the progress I have made so far...

So cute, seriously you are so good at everything you do!
very, very cute. I hear you about being addicted. I spent over two weeks making one for Carter (it's on my blog somewhere in Dec 2010 or Jan 11). It was A LOT of work, but fun to know it will be fun to have for the years to come.
Love your taste & skill so far!
Thanks Kara, you are so sweet! I just looked up your book Jenna... wow, talk about creative! I love your ideas and activities. They are a ton of work, but it is fun to think of the possibility of passing it down to maybe even grandkids. I still have my quiet book that my mom made me.
You have done a FABULOUS job! I love the robot! I may have to borrow that idea for my son's book. And cutting out the numbers for the carrot patch instead of embroidering them? Why oh why didn't I think of that?! So smart!
Can't wait to see it all finished!
This is so cute!! I don't think I would have the patience to make one. You are so creative and so crafty!
