    I made this about two years ago. The planning and sewing was great fun and I could incorporate many of the fancy stitches of my new sewing machine.

    Edited to add that my fancy computer is so smart, that it automatically stands pictures the right way round, pity it doesn't copy them the same way into this forum.

    I love your quilt - what a clever use of stitches to illustrate the book bindings. My two favorite things -quilts and books. Good job.
