Slowly, but surely, I've been managing to get a few of the quiet pages done. I figured you'd probably want to see them, right? Well when I found this cute little pie page on pinterest, I decided it HAD to be done, simply because I needed a weave me page, and pies are just that awesome. We have a simple cherry pie.
The outer circle measures 9 inches. I cut an inner circle out at 8 inches. Make sure you measure the pie filling at 9 inches too or you'll have a small problem like I did. Some of the back green fabric is showing through the pie in a small spot. Yep I was dumb enough to use the inner 8 in circle as my pattern.
Then just take a sheet of fet and cut out 9 inch strips. 10 strips to be exact.
And the robots. Nothing to see here, just some puffy robots that slide along some yarn. Simple, but I figured my son would like it since I used the excess fabric from making is favorite blanket.
I guess now would be a great time to mention the actual making of the page:
I took twice the measurement of each page, and cut the fabric to that, but added two extra inches.
So the fabric page will measure 10 x 10 on each side. So I cut the fabric for two pages at 12 x 22, since I'd want 10 x 20 to show.
I then pinned batting on the inside, and stitched away with details. Lastly, I just sewed the page together to make one 10 x 10 page with two sides.
