My first fabric book for my niece Acacia




I have been looking for a while at the beautiful fabric books or journals people make, check SuziQ's site on my blog page) hers are the best I have seen! I wanted to make one, and while no comparison should be made to hers, LOL, when my niece came to visit I thought I would try and make one for her to keep a few curious things and I attached pins, little books, all sorts of scrapbooking tools, and some of the pages are just made of muslin so she can journal with fabric markers....
I knew she would love it!
So here's my first modest try at it.....it sure was fun to make!

Our garden







We also are enjoying the hummingbird and butterfly gardens....and the birds love the sunflowers too!














It has been very hot here and hard to keep up with the garden. But it's so nice to walk out and get everything for our salad every day! I have also made quiche with zucchini from the garden, so good....
