Default baby book

A few months ago someone posted photos of a baby book she'd made out of small pieced and quilted squares. I was so intrigued by it that I tried making one--sans instructions-- and these photos are the result. It's horribly sewn and there's no excuse for that except it was an experiment that I finally just wanted done. After I got the "pages" made, I couldn't figure out how she put hers together; the way I did it is clearly not correct but a baby probably wouldn't care!

There are three peek-a-boo pages -- the theme is dogs, as you can see -- well, dogs and transportation -- backed with a non peek a boo square. The front is the red and white stripe peek-a-boo and that's wrong; it should not have a peek a boo cover, but I couldn't figure how to put them together with a plain square front and back.

The OP's book was wonderful! and very professional looking. Mine was just a fun experimental project, rather poorly made, but I'm showing it, anyway, in case someone else wants to try.
