Both quilts are so nice. The storybook one is cute. The Abe one is stunning. Great work.

What an awesome idea to cut up the fabric book panel to make a quilt. DUH, I never even thought of doing that. I have made 4 of those books for gifts for big brothers or sisters when I send a "new baby" quilt. Great idea, thanks for that, I will save the rest of mine for when I have to do a quickie in the future. You did a great job on both of your quilts. Thanks for sharing your quilts and ideas.

That is Awesome! I've never thought of using fabric for a book that way. Thanks for the idea. (Our grandson and wife are expecting twin girls in a few months.:o)

The Bedtime Story quilt is simply darling. Nice that it is from the two of you working together. Love the idea of useing the pages the way you did. I'm sure it will be treasured for many years to come. Bless you for honoring your husband's request in this labor of love.

regarding tea bath - if i wanted just the white covered - i'd use a small soft artists brush and apply the tea like paint to the white border - then wash
