For the front of my story sack I want a small fabric book, I thought felt would be the best bet. So I started to look for a simple design that I could use. I couldn't find one. Then I came across this Needle holder book and it was just what I was looking for.
So I set about making it, mine will have 10 pages in total which I plan to add "reading/book" quotes to each page. My initial idea was to stitch them on the felt, then I realised that the sewing would go through and I couldn't use the reverse side of the page. I tried fabric pens and fabric paint but they looked really big on the felt and not very nice. My last idea and what I am going with was stitching the quotes onto another piece of material and fixing that to the book pages. Whether I fix with glue or sewing i'm not quite sure.
I am going to write the quotes in pencil on the extra piece of material and then stitch over them, so that they stand out.
