Beautiful job on this book. I know it will be used for hours and hours. I made one for one of my grandsons 2 years ago. Now his little brother is using it, plus every other child in church on Sundays. I put the book together with binder rings so daughter could rotate some of the pages. Two minutes after she gets to church, children will "sneak" over to her to "borrow" a page or 2 to use during the meeting. Guess that's why they are called "quiet books".

Great pages. Colorful and educational as well as fun.

Oh, wow! Your button flowers take me back! I remember the quiet books that our church had and I used to entertain myself (and my baby brother) 30 years ago. This vase of flowers looks just like what I remember. Great job!

Nice! I bet your family love and appreciate those very much. Got me thinking about fabric lacing cards I saw one time. Has anyone seen patterns for those?

I have always thought of making one of those but now I have greats and still haven't made any. Congrats on a job well done.

A great book. You did a lot of work and it looks good.

mary quite contrary 11-02-2011 02:01 PM

Thank you. It was a lot of work but a labor of love. I wouldn't make one to sell because I would have to charge too much.

My kids had one when they were little. Think I still have it somewhere.

Yours is just lovely, very creative and bound to keep a small person busy for quite some time.
