Quiet Book, check!

I originally started this Quiet Book as a way to get some people to come to our monthly project night. The plan was to do one page a month {totally do-able} and make a church-themed QB. yada yada...I finished the cover today, and can finally say that it's done...another project to check of the list.
The kids are going to get it for easter {isn't that Easter Bunny crafty?}
My Mother-in-Law says I should sell the pattern...so, I'll put the instructions and all the patterns in my etsy shop as soon as I can whip it up...{writing a pattern is buh-rutal!}
Anyways, here are a few of the pages...
Per the advise from my friend Laura, I left room in the cover to add pages later if I want...velcro attachments
Bound with grommets and those office-supply rings (I need to get bigger ones, but I had these)

the Chapel doors seem to say to me {shhhhh} be still...
The iron rod (the people move up and down the shoelace)
dress the mish
moroni buries the golden plates...
...and JosephSmith finds them {this is my favorite page...so tricky!}
One of the sacrament pages
so much fun to make, but so happy to check it off my list!

I wish i had kids already so i could make this quiet book! If you haven't been there yet another blog I love is infarrantlycreative.blogspot.com
There is a tutorial for making your own fabric solution so you can print pictures onto fabric without expensive iron-on paper. That might also be useful for those who can't draw-they can print the pics out on fabric! :)
