quiet book templates

good morning!

Below are some templates from my quiet book. Print them out as a full page image, and they'll be just the right size for a 12x12 inch quiet book.









Sorry that not all pages are included, and that I did not provide detailed intructions. I am hoping that you can figure out the construction by looking at my completed pages. If you are totally stumped, just email me and I will try to answer your questions.

For more great quiet book ideas, check out the following blogs:

Thanks Jill - this keeps my kids from having to guess what in the world I drew on their pages! Still trucking along with the quiet book - only two pages done (in each of two books) so far. Maybe this will be my winter project...

Thank you! I am sooo excited to work on this, hopefully today. I started gathering supplies for other pages I came up with already. My son's birthday is in a week and a half, so I want to get at least a few pages done.

Thanks!

Awesome! I'd never heard of these before. I've seen cloth story books, but nothing this neat with activities and things! Maybe if I start now I'll be able to finish it by the time I have kids! :)

I've been a lurker on your blog for a while now and decided it was time to say hi! I have no idea how I found you, but I love your crafty ideas!

LOVE this project SO much! My mom made us one when we were little. I'm going to do this for my little one and her cousin, who is moving to Rwanda in September. It should keep her occupied for a while on the long flight!

Thank you for the templates and all the great links! I'll have to pop back over and let you know when I finish mine. Don't hold your breath, though. It'll take me a few months... " )

How adorable! I've been blog hopping on how to make a quiet book since I loved the one my mom made us kids. Yours is so wonderful. What kind of felt did you use? The kind I bought at JoAnns seems so thin. Thank you~

I think out of all the many many many blogs I follow, yours is my FAVORITE. Yesterday when I drove home from work I had an idea very similar to your quiet book for the kids I nanny. I think I am going to make some kind of velco pieces boy dress up book. Like a fireman and such. My original idea was to do felt and whipstitch everything because I LOVE felt and embroidery thread, but now I think I will use fabric and and the machine. Just wanted to let you know I love your blog and this book. Oh and your son is ADORABLE and his name is my 2nd favorite of all time, good choice!
