This is my progress of making my first Quiet Book for my son Ayven. I am really excited about this project.

Page 12 - Beehive
The beehive is very similar to the jacket page (Page 5). I sewed the zipper to the yellow felt. I then sewed black ribbon in stripes on the felt to make it look like a bee. When I sewed it to the page, I made sure it made a pocket for the bees.
The bees are made out of craft pompoms. I hot glued them together with a piece of ribbon behind the head, then hot glued googly eyes.
I sewed the bees in the beehive to keep them from being lost. However, with the first use of the zipper, the ribbon was stuck in the zipper. I had to cut them out of the hive. It turned out to be better this way. Ayven loves to have bee fights with them.
