I have made a few quiet books in the past and wanted to do a feel book like the ones you see in the store. Well I was thinking of doing it with a circle of the 'fur' but it didn't fly so well so I did the whole cut out. (It will make sense with pics!)
Its not perfect but its why I love it! I took images online and just printed and cut them out. Super easy! Google bear vinyl or something and print one you want! For the material, I scored at a rummage sale that had lots of different fabrics. I love a good sale! :) But be creative, stuffed animals work great and random fabric from hats, wallets ect!
I took 2 piece of the felt and sewed the edges. I hot glued the cut outs because I did not want to sew them all. I made 3 books and my hand thanked me!!!
Once I was finished with the book, I sewed all of the pages together!
Simple simple simple! It didn't take much time and I know my little guy will love it when he gets a bit older!
Enjoy <3
The Lioin is not finished. Its why it has taken me so long to post this! I still am not finished but you get the idea :)
I love these feathers!!!
I hope this has inspired someone! My next quiet book will be for church! I have done one page to date and its been on the back burn so hopefully I finish it by the end of the year ;)
