The Quiet Book - Prep

In preparation for my upcoming massive project, I've decided to be as organized as possible for it!  

So... I have gone from this:

Messy, knotted and time consuming mess!




To THIS:

Yeaaaaa me!

The other day, I took a trip to my neighborhood fabric store (haha - it's only a 40 minute drive!) and discovered SCRAP BAGS!!!!! They offer these big bags of scraps for $1.99 for the whole bag!!! The bag was about the size of my toddler! 

Insert name of blog here and remember that I don't have scraps of anything left over from other projects because until recently, I didn't DO projects. So needless to say, I was quite thrilled and my little one and I had a ball going through all the scraps in our bag! 

He was waddling around the house with his arms out humming like this - very cute!
hmmm... does he look a little like Snow White here? Aren't those her colors?!

He kept trying to get the piece of pink silk to stay on his head - haha!

So I now have a great little pile of scrap materials for my quiet book project! AND I finally went through the bottom of my Mom's sewing basket - OH MY GOODNESS! There was sooo much STUFF in there!!! haha! I guess I should have done that BEFORE I went tot the fabric store and bought new needles! Oh well, I've an excuse to go back now!  hehe!
