Can anyone remember this children’s book from 70’s?

[Muddybuddy]

It’s such a long shot. It was a large book, a4 size, hardback, blue I think, and it was a collection of v short bedtime stories, some several on one oage. I was born in 76 so I imagine it was a 70’s book, my parents used to read the stories to me as a child and I really want to try and find a copy. One story I remember v well was an ill child who made a
Patchwork blanket for her dolls with some scraps of material.
Not much to go on I know but I wondered if anyone remembered having the same book and remembers what it was called

Type Vintage 70's book short bedtime stories into your search engine. I just did this and quite a wide range came up - with images of the covers. One of them might be what you're looking for.

Thanks, I did think that but no luck yet. Which makes me wonder if it wasn’t a very obvious or well known book.

Was it 365 bedtime stories ?

Maybe look at 1960s books as all my childhood books had been handed down from my mums friends children and cousins etc. I don't remember a brand new book they all had curled pages etc.

365 sounded promising but I dont recognise any of the covers I can find online. Thanks though.
Yes maybe 60’s, I’ll try but I think it had a very seventies look about it

Can you remember any of the other stories?

Any of these, OP?

There are lots of bedtime stories type books illustrated by Eric Kincaid. Could it have been one of them? Such as this: stellabooks.com/books/lucy-kincaid/stories-for-bedtime/1504849

I still have my '365 bedtime stories' from about 1964, the dust jacket is long gone, however the hardback cover was a deep purple with gold embossed lettering, its now lilac with no lettering at all.

This rings a bell. Is it the one where the grandmother teaches the girl how to make a grandmother’s garden (hexagon) quilt with meaningful scraps? Not the more modern book called the Patchwork Quilt.

Was it pale blue and the gold embossing was a bear and possibly a rabbit holding fishing rods.

Also had stories about a boy eating baloney sandwiches and the dentist and doctor arguing over lollipops.

This is the book I have well it’s a pic from a booksellers website

Could it be this?

Thanks so much everyone, I didn’t think I’d get so many replies! Unfortunately I don’t think it’s any of them. The blanket story was v short, as they all were, so I don’t think it was as detailed as that, though it seems there are obviously lots of quilt stories out there. I think the girl wanted to make a dress for her doll but only had red and green scraps so the mum suggested a blanket.
I want to say the girl was called patsy but that might be wrong

Was it the Twinkle annual?

One like this..

There is a Patsy in it...

No definitely not twinkle but I did have a twinkle annual and that story looks familiar so thanks! Always nice to have a trip down memory lane

Enid Blyton annual of short stories ??

Both my granny and my auntie asked me what I'd like for Christmas so I said the Twinkle annual ...

Is it the Richard Scarry 365 bedtime stories?

@MargotMoon Richard Scarry Didn't he do Lowley Worm??

There was a new 365 stories every year I think. My aunt used to buy me one each year.

@Coldwinterahead1 I don't think I know Lowley Worm!

He was big into anthropomorphism or whatever it's called (animals being humans!)

Well I've just been down memory lane

I had that book @Valkadin I remember the story about the Dr and Dentist arguing over lollipops,I also remember a story about a girl learning to roller skate holding onto to railings ,and a bear and a boy being best friends and living next door to each and their mothers being so tired of talking about each others house they sent them next door 🤣
