It's similar to home decor weight and properties, but available in plain colors. If you go into Jo-Ann's and ask at the fabric counter they should be able to point you to it. I recommend something more stable than cotton fabric- like twill or denim or felt. Having something more stable than a plain cotton quilting fabric meant that I didn't need anything in between to fill it. Some of my friends in the group sewed craft foam in between the layers to make the page more stable and rigid without adding weight. I put cardboard in the covers of one of my books, and metal sheets on the back of the other- so that gave the book a good stiff surface for the pages to rest on when you hold it in your lap. I've made fabric books (the panel character books you can buy at fabric stores) with batting in between, and they seemed so puffy to me. I was trying to cut out some of the bulk of the books so it would all fit in my church bag. I've seen it done all kinds of ways- some people do rings with holes on the sides, some bind, some make it into a bag with big handles. It's up to you! Hope that helps!Jackihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18209680593669131962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765804127359364313.post-47413046714049084402012-01-27T21:06:35.461-05:002012-01-27T21:06:35.461-05:00Question: your pages (the base fabric) - were they...Question: your pages (the base fabric) - were they just a cotton material?

I think most of the members of my group used tutorials from the internet- so you could try to google a description of the page and see what comes up. I like to search with google images to find the same look, faster. The only one I designed was the dress and barettes page, so I could provide detailed instructions if you email me, jacquelinerenee@hotmail.comJackihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18209680593669131962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765804127359364313.post-6754379189017918812011-10-26T18:48:59.098-04:002011-10-26T18:48:59.098-04:00I love this quiet book.
