Mother Goose


Mother Goose

I recently sewed Edmund a cloth "Mother Goose" book from a printed panel I picked up at the Hickory Stick Quilt & Gift Shop in Hannibal, MO. The illustrations are reprints from the 1920s or 1930s and each page contains a short nursery rhyme. This simple project was made more difficult by the fact that the panels were not quite printed on the grain, which I discovered during cutting. But, the end result is fine and what's more, Edmund is happy to have a book he can put in his mouth!

  2. Your little boy is so, so cute. You wouldn't mind if I "borrowed" him for the rest of the year would you? I'd gladly take him any time. :)

    Oh, and that book idea is a really good one.
