Let's Count Mini Book

Here's another project moved over from the Galblog...I thought it might make a quick and easy handmade present!

I wanted to make a book about numbers for my 3-year-old daughter, and when I looked at all the cute felt animals in my stash, I knew I had just the thing!
The canvas pages meant I could attach the letters and numbers by stitching through them on my sewing machine--this way I know curious fingers won't be able to pull them off! I also used Fabri-Tac to glue down the felties more securely, after taking off the foam adhesive circles first.
I sewed front and back of one page at the same time, and then glued on the felties afterward. I was thrilled to be (finally) using up the numbers from my thicker packages!
I think she likes it, don't you?
