    Oh that is wonderful and I'm sure will be a favorite 'book' for a long time ... a nice heirloom book.

    Awwww come on, you can now probably make more of these with your eyes closed! You know once done, it gets easier and goes faster. Can I put my order in? :lol:

    There are three women that would pay you to make them a Quiet Book!!! You did outstanding - I would never attempt to make one.

    After realizing how much time you put into this 'work-of-art book', and even at minimum wage, only a celebrity could afford to pay you for your work!

    But it is a work of love for Violet!
