In only three days I managed to make Amelia a cloth book similar to the one I took a month to make for Jack. This was achieved by the use of novelty quilting prints rather than assembling every detail of every picture myself, my awareness of Vliesofix/Easyfix/Heat'n'Bond rather than turning the edges of every piece (no matter how tiny or round) and by machine stitching the edges (because I don't trust Vliesofix in the hands of babies) rather than hand appliqueing with an embroidery hoop and floss.
Method analysis over; time for the reveal!
My French knot eye isn't really positioned wonkily, it's just been pushed the wrong way.
I'm proud that everyone's hair is made from tram cushion offcuts.
The garden is possibly my favourite page. I've had that piece of flower fabric for about twelve years.
I bought this piece of linen blend fabric (Kokka?) from... either Elena of Buttonlicious or Lou of Buttons by LouLou. I've forgotten!
Hope your Christmas was beautiful and full of love.
