Shortly after Eli was born I began making this book for him. I put several labels, buttons, zippers, velcro, a shoe lace and something I can’t identify. I don’t know if Eli ever played with the book and if I made another book for a baby, I would not include the beaded handle and maybe not even the buttons. Some day I’d like to make another cloth book, but inspiration hasn’t come.

I think Robin still has the book. She reminded me about it; I had forgotten entirely. This book was made before the two books I made in the printing shop.
