Update: I have received many emails and comments asking about a pattern, it's posted in a few places around the blog, but I thought I'd add it to the top of this post too to make it easier to find. I followed Simplicity 3709 for these busy books, with very slight deviations.
The Shop's first official order was shipped out yesterday. This book is going to a little girl named Eleanor for her first birthday. Super cute name, right? Her aunt ordered it for her and asked for a rainbow of colors with graphic prints and a bit of a vintage vibe.
I hope she likes it as much as I do because I fell in the love with the colors and fabrics while making the book. I'll admit, I might even be a little jealous that this isn't Audrey's book.
It was pretty fun to get to package the book up and ship it off. The first order just seems a bit special.
Oh, and if you're wondering why the shop is currently empty, it's because I'm up to my ears in orders right now. As soon as I get this batch of books finished and shipped I will add more listings. I'm so thankful for all the support and enthusiasm I've gotten about selling the books. When I listed the first one I didn't know what would come of it, but to have all the listings sell out in just a couple weeks time blew me away. So thanks!
I LOVE this! And I really need this as well. :) You are amazing!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for you that people are purchasing the books! They look so high quality, you do beautiful work.

ReplyDeleteLove the book. Would you consider selling me a pattern only for personal use. My grandbabies would love them. I have been shopping for patterns unsuccessfully. I love the real book look.

ReplyDeleteHi I love your work. Can you tell me how much your books cost and when you are available to make one
ReplyDeleteThank you! Unfortunately I'm no longer making or selling these books. They are quite labor intensive and now that we have three little kiddos I just am not able to find the time.
DeleteEmily do you have a pattern for your quite books I love the way they look especially the binding how it looks like a real book I want to make some for my son and your book looks the best so far or if you can point me in the right direction for a good pattern
ReplyDeleteHi Kelly, I use the Simplicity 3709 pattern. I'm sure your son will love having a busy book, our kids sure love playing with them!
DeleteHow do I find the pattern to make this book?
ReplyDeleteHello can tell me a fair price to charge for these books. I love to sew and just started making them. Thank you. Teresa
ReplyDeleteThere is noticeably big money to comprehend this. I suppose you have made specific nice points in functions also. nursery wall murals
