Quiet Book: Treasure Map

This was one of the first quiet book pages I made for the book but I haven't gotten around to posting it until now.  Its a treasure map page!


The pattern for this page can be found here.


I wanted to put lots of sparkles inside the chest.  Elsy always finds this page and likes to look at the treasure.  She is working on the word 'sparkles'.


The treasure map was really fun to make but I had a hard time sewing the plastic over the bottle cap.  My lines weren't perfect but I couldn't exactly re-do it because the plastic shows the holes from the sewing needle, where fabric can hide those types of things.  It turned out alright though.


And if you are wondering when I do these pages, it usually is when Elsy is napping.  But since it is crunch time before baby #2 shows up she will sit next to my sewing table in the tent Logan made for her and play with her toys!  She loves it.  She also will stand on a stool next to me while I sew on the machine and bounce up and down with the needle... or change the settings on the tension when I am not looking and then we have all kinds of problems. ;)  Love my little helper!
