soft color book

ok, i just figuratively arm-wrestled blogger into posting these pictures. for some reason it loaded the first three pics fine, and then wouldn’t let me do the other two. grrr. i won though. nya nya nah blogger.

i think this is my new favorite project, i seriously love looking at it! i used this tutorial. loving all the scrappy tutorials coming out of sew mama sew for their contest! i’m just sad i didn’t find out about it until too late. ๐Ÿ™ oh well.


here’s my cover…made with some linen and appliqued letters. love!

red and orange pages..

yellow and green pages…

blue and purple pages…yep, i know i need more purple fabric, apparently. that’s all i had!

sadie trying to get her hands on the book-no way, missy. this one goes in the christmas presents pile. ๐Ÿ˜€

oh, and happy halloween! pictures of our costumes later! no, i didn’t make them, but they’re still cute!

  1. I love your version of this! I will be adding it onto my to-do list…

  2. Very cute Jess! I was just thinking that I do not have any purple thread which most likely means no purple fabric!! I will have to work on that this coming year!!!

  3. I was able to see this entire post in my reader! Yay! Thanks for the change.

    Have a Happy Halloween. Can’t wait to see pics of Sadie in her homemade costume… I’m assuming her mama sewed up something super cute!
