![]() ![]() I love sewing for little ones.This was the book that has actually inspired me for the whole Quiet concept.My mom made another fabric quiet book called It’s a Zoo using a vintage pattern!.Looking for more sewing projects? Check out my Sewing Crafts Page!.They also make the best keepsakes! I know we’ll always have these sweet books and can hopefully pass them down. I love quiet books – they are perfect for quiet time and when my kids need some time to calm down or get ready for bed. Hopefully it is useful if you decide to make this quiet book! Below are a few of the places I have found it online at the time of publishing this post. The pattern used is Simplicity 3709 which may be available at your local craft store. She searched her stash for lots of the smaller pieces and ribbons. My mom purchased fabric for the background pages and binding from Joann Fabrics along with felt and a couple small pieces of fur/fleece. This quiet book takes lots of different fabrics and notions, many you may already have in your stash since some of the pieces you’ll need are quiet small. ![]() My kids love these fabric books and they are a definite labor of love! She signed the inside cover with “Grandma” using embroidery thread, which is such a sweet touch. mom personalized the book with my child’s name and the year she made it. The fabric pages of the quiet book are all bound with a soft fabric cover. This is the trickiest page of the book and even though my kids have not figured out how to tie the bow yet, they still love playing with it. Unfasten the nest and kids will discover little eggs hidden inside!įinally, the last page is this cute sneaker. The nest is made from fur and is so fun for little ones to play with. Next up is the cute little bird sitting in it’s nest. It comes in and out of the pink polka dot dog house on a ribbon leash. My mom did such a great job! The little dog is made from soft fleece and lightly stuffed. The puppy page in this book turned out so well. There is a bit of yellow tulle sewn at the top which is fun for kids to pull out and tuck in the husk. Little ones can unzip the husk to see the corn inside. The page made me laugh out loud when we first looked through this book because it was so unexpected. The corn on the cob page is so fun and adorable. The bowtie on the kitty actually has jingle bells in it! Such a fun and unexpected surprise! My mom used extra soft gray fleece for the kitten’s fur and ears making it a fun texture for little ones to feel.įollowing the kitten is one of my favorite pages, the butterfly! The wings were made using sparkly fabric with textured sequins and are filled with cellophane which makes a fun crinkly sound when little hands play with them. The buttons my mom used are so cute and playful! This page is a great fine motor activity. The next page features sweet felt flowers with ribbon stems that can each be unbuttoned. The book starts out with a little Peekaboo! The yarn hair is such a fun texture and the hands close with just a little bit of Velcro fastener. Below you can see the fun and interactive pages she created! Fabric Quiet Book Pages Page One: Peekaboo Choosing fabrics from the same collection help the book feel cohesive when finished. I like how the fabric colors create a soft and sweet palette. Simplicity 3709 Quiet Bookįor the fabric of this quiet book, my mom chose a rainbow of colors in flowers and polka dots and used those as the background for each page. Today I am sharing the second quiet book she made, this time using the Simplicity Pattern 3709. The first quiet book my mom made was created using a vintage 1970s Vogue pattern called “It’s a Zoo”. She made my sister and I lots of clothes when we were growing up and the best halloween costumes! Now my mom still loves to sew and has made some beautiful things for my kids, including quiet books! Hello Crafty Friends! With Mother’s Day this weekend, I thought it would be fun to share a sewing project my mom made!
