Will's Quiet Book

Talk about procrastination! I leave tomorrow morning and I am just now finishing the quiet book! Well, finished for now. I still have several ideas for pages that I want to do so I will be adding to this book in 2014. Also I was originally planning on putting my quiet book pages in a binder for the trip. But as I was packing I realized how bulky that binder was. So I decided to ditch the binder and make my own cover. I didn't have enough time to make a nice cover so I made a 'for now' cover. I will be making a nice fancy one later. Perhaps while in PA :-)

Here are the final pages (for now) of the quiet book! (Again, sorry for the poor photo quality, one day I will figure out how to get my camera hooked up to the computer!) See you all soon!!

 The photo book all together. I sewed pages together back to back then made three button holes on each page. I tied them together with embroidery floss for now so it will be easy to add new pages.

 The final two pages. Will loves pirates, treasure, and keys so I love this page. It's very plain, as I was on a tight schedule ;-) 

 When unlocked, you find building blocks I made.by cutting a bunch of shapes and sewing two together. He can use the white page next to it to build the blocks on.
