cloth books


I've been making a few cloth books of late for some special first birthdays.



The monkey is a likeness of a favourite toy and has a squeaker in him.


The tea cup represents all the coffee mornings (and afternoons) spent at the Tudor Tearooms, and Bob is her little pull along dog.


This is broccoli and blueberries, the only food that passed her lips for quite some time, and of course the last page is Betty tucked up in bed.


She likes this page best.

Here's Betty's special friend Oliver's.




Here I've added a stirring spoon. The sail boat has crinkly flapping sails.


Oliver lives on the top of a very steep hill.

  1. oh they're beautiful Vicky! We still treasure our two books very much. May I also add that they're very soft, and that's nice too.x
