HAPPY ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!! SIX MONTHS TO COMPLETE IT!



I had to wait until my daughter in law told everyone she wanted to tell but Vance and I are going to be grand parents....  Do I hear a WHOOT!!!

All these years of my whinning and crying and wishing everyone well when they had a grandbaby and deep down wanting one of my own.

So this morning....as I was looking at all of my projects I need to complete.....

I just sighed.....

until an idea popped into my head!!

Just popped...right there!!!

I am going to make my own quiet book!!

here is the beginning idea.... do you know what I am having?





I had thought to buy a pattern, then looking at all of the books and ideas on line, I thought...

I can do that myself.  I can make my own.

Would it be easier to have a pattern???  YES

Am I cheap?  YES

Will it be fun to make it my own???  YES

So....looking online and getting an ideal of size and how I wanted to attach each page, 

I cut 9" x 18"

I plan to sew right down the middle of the page to attach it to the book cover.

I cut out ten, I was going to cut just a page at a time but you know us quilters.....I will dream of another project and see that white fabric and go....OHHHH I will use that.

Then when I needed another page....OOOPS>>>> so no chance for that happening.

I will use some felt but I want to make a book that will be very durable....so I am sure through

trial and 

error

hopefully,

create a fun book.

I actually have more than six months....but at least I have a start.

So....hopefully, I can share my book as it progresses.
