    Thanks
    Dorian - I am making a book shelf wall hanging for my "writer" son for Christmas. I was amazed at how many nice sites were recommended for you to look at. I googled book shelf quilts and found FREE patterns for some neat blocks. Just printed them off. I just received my pretty walnut fabric from online for the bookshelf itself. I am going to try printing off a picture of the books he has written onto fabric and incorporate those somehow. I hope to start next week. Have fun with yours.

    I have just finished one. I haven't post pictures on the new site, so bear with me. Maybe it will end up in the picture group.
