Don't you love when you are inspired by something & you can't wait to make one for yourself? That's how I felt when I saw this
quiet book designed by April over at
Studio Calico! I know what you're thinking, will Miss Avery really sit quiet and play with that? Surprisingly, yes, she absolutely loves all the little pieces-especially Em & Russ driving the dump truck! :) I kept it really
simple. Everything on the pages are backed with velcro to make it interactive with fun word stickers behind them.
(I sewed the pieces before I glued them down. Handcut the zoo, laundry basket & clothes.)
Email Studio Calico at info[at]studiocalico.com if you want to request this add-on kit or see supply list below.

Love this idea..Collin reminds me of Mr. Incredible in the little car!
Can you recommend a low cost (under $100) sewing machine?
Thanks
I was only a tiny bit surprised to see that you made this....it would take me days to do that!
Your the gReAtEsT!!

oh my that is the cutest thing EVER! I'm on a big "give homemade gifts" kick this year and have a party for a 2 year old this saturday. I couldn't think of anything so had to just buy but this would have been perfect!!! Totally filing away for the next toddler bday! Thanks for sharing!
Cute project!
LOVE it.
i need to make one of those. but sadie would probably eat it. and harper would get seriously pissed.
that's how it usually goes around here. ;)
How cute is that?!?! I don't have any kiddos, but I love it!! Love the velcro/interactive aspect of it! Too cute.
what a cute project - I loved it when I saw it at the Studio Calico site. Yours turned out great!
How adorable, i love the colors!
Not sure if the first commenter LISA will come back and read this, but I just bought a mini sewing machine for $30 at Walter Drake. It's not for major sewing projects, but it's perfect for little scrapbook sewing, and little pillows.
Seriously, seriously! That is so unreal cute. I cannot believe you have time to do all this. I am so jealous and feel completely inadquate. I love this project.
Quiet books are nothing new but yours is TAKING IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL IN A BIG WAY! INGENIOUS!AWESOME JOB!
Cute quiet book, my daughter would tear all that hard work to pieces!
So I used your advice from one of your Q&As, and used photobucket to make my pictures bigger on my blog. The only problem is now they don't fit because the side margins are too big. Do you know how to adjust that so that the you can see the whole picture? And I would still love to know how you made that cute flower headband too!
Have a happy day!
Cute project! :)
I saw you in Utah Valley Magazine "Fab50". Congrats!!
super cute take!
Oh, that's cute. And not too hard! Thanks for giving us the shopping list. I like when you do that.
Aaaaahhhh {screaming} that is the CUTEST thing ever!! I cannot get over how stinkin' cute this is. My boys are beyond this, but I may just have to make one anyway--it's a great gift! Thanks so much for sharing. You are the best!!
ps. I just put a bunch if Lenka songs on my Playlist--so fun. Love her.
Ok, so I love your blog and check it ALL the time....but seriously, I feel so inadequate when I see all the gorgeous things you pump out! I also have 2 little girls (6 months & 3 1/2 years) and the fact that you find the time to do all that you do is amazing to me. You rock! Can you tell me your secret??? :)

I love this! Way too cute! Can you make me one? :) My daughter would love it! Thanks for putting the supply list, just in case I attempt to make my own!
