Thank you! I have an alphabet panel I have always wanted to turn into a soft and quiet book and now I have the knowledge and courage to tackle this unfinished project!

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

So adorable! Thank you for posting this video!

[@TheLadymolly]

Love, love love! I just ordered the panel and crinkle paper. I will be sewing a book for my granddaughter's first birthday.

I LOVE this series 💖
No babies in my house right now but I know lots of crafty people that have them so I'm SHARING 🤗

[@stephanieray5940]

Thank you for such a thorough tutorial!

Looking for elephant quilt

[@jenniferrobinson6338]

I just made my first book! So fun. I was confused about how to use the crinkle until I noticed you didn’t use it in the interior pages… I probably would have put it inside every page!!!

[@marietteforget7804]

Thanks a lot, you explain really well and the camera job is excellent! 🌸🌸

[@authenticallyamber99]

Cute! 😃 Clear, concise instructions! Excited for this series! Thank you! 💕🌸

[@livingweirdestherc6644]

This is so cute :)

[@renettamackinzie6618]

Great instructions. Very confident, concise, clear. Have you been doing this for years? If so do you have other video series with other projects?

[@helenfitch3440]

Pinking shears work instead of clipping the curved edges as well

[@wrenhernandez9032]

How did you print what you wanted on fabric? Did you contact a publisher to get the fabric printed?

[@gwenmalinowski3308]

I just purchased a book panel. Perfect timing!

[@settame1]

Would this be the same technique for making stuffed animal panels?

[@SliceofPiQuilts]

Very similar! The panels I've seen for stuffed animals also have directions printed on them, so that would be helpful too!

[@paulinemcleggan7585]

Can I buy this in the UK? Lovely video. You are a great teacher

[@tonyastokley5165]

Did you add the trim to your pressing mat ? If how did you do that !? Wool one lol nice video ty so much !

[@SliceofPiQuilts]

No, it came that way. It's more like a wool pressing board, as it is hard on the back. I don't see it currently available on their website though.

[@helenweatherby1694]

Excellent tutorial. Is this panel available in the UK?
