Book of Liam

I had an image of a fabric tag book for Liam swimming around in my head, so I had to make it so (or is that “sew”?).

I was able to utilize some of the stitches on my brand spankin’ new sewing machine. I have always thought all I needed was a straight stitch and a zig-zag, but I am loving all the fancy stitches!

Liam really seems to enjoy the book when he actually decides to sit still for a minute. He LOVES all books, but he also tends to chew them apart, so he has to be supervised with paper or board books. This gives him a chance to have a book he can play with and turn the pages all by himself.

I tried to use as many different textures as I could find in my fabric stash. I also put plastic baggie material inside the front and back cover for some noise. Liam’s favorite things right now are ziplock sandwich bags.

Each page features a letter in his first name. Luckily his name is only 4 letters, so there aren’t many pages to make!
