{Beth’s ADORABLE Felt Book for Baby}

I am excited to show case my friend Beth’s ADORABLE felt baby quiet book. Beth is an amazing pianist and music teacher and has created an amazing program called Kid’s Rach that 2 of my children attend. She claims she is not a crafter, however I have to disagree. She caught my Quiet Book bug (quiet book 1,  quiet book 2), and went nuts, creating some of the cutest quiet books I have seen. I will have to share another of her books soon.

But today I wanted to share with you this cute book she made for her dear friend that was having a baby girl. Wouldn’t you love to get this gift at your baby shower!!!

She made a cover similar to mine. For her pages she used approximately 10×10 sheets of felt and beautiful, bright fabric.

Page 1-felt elephant attached to polkadot ribbon-baby can remove and attach to velcro

Page 2-Clear vinyl sewn on hides bright fun little treasures for baby to feel and move around

Page 3:Most adorable zebra like the elephant on page 1

Page 4-Sea creatures baby can move back and forth on a string and let them swim through the sea

Page 5-Button Fun! Babies can move buttons up and down on a thick string  (make sure they are tightly attached so they aren’t a choking hazard)

Page 6-Adorable removable Lion (LOVE that mane!)

Page 7-Tassel Fun! Babies get to hold and touch these soft and bright tassels.

Page 8-Felt penguin friends that move up and down on thick string.

Page 9-And my favorite-A chick that plays peek-a-boo. Baby can hide the little yellow felt chick in a white felt egg pocket. SO cute!

Thank you Beth for sharing you Adorable baby quite book today!

    Could you tell me how you set up the egg page? I want to make a similar page for mine with two eggs in a nest with those cute little birds inside, but I can’t figure out the best way to get the egg to come apart and come back together easily.

    Just thought I’d let you know I included a link to your post on my personal blog. I used the whale page in a busy book I made for my son. Such a cute idea! Thanks for the post!
