Quick Color Quiet Book
So I wanted to do a quiet book for Lotte's big girl backpack, but I wanted it to be done yesterday. As some of you who have made quiet books know, they are not something that can be done quickly. So I decided to do a less interactive and more informative type quiet book that could be made and played within a day (or so).

I used felt for the pages. And I used scrap fabrics, ribbons, ric rac, and buttons in all the colors. I cut everything with pinking shears so I didn't hem anything. I did a quick running stitch with embroidery thread along the edges of the fabric, and all the ribbon was hot glued on. I know it isn't 100% quality construction, but I wanted it to be quick and easy. So if something falls off or frays...no big deal, just glue it back on!
