Library Books


One of our library secretary's duties was handling the book orders. When she retired, her quilt HAD to be books. She worked for seven different library directors during her 33 years on the job. I tracked them all down (with help from the reference and acquisitions departments!) so they could sign books for her quilt. Each book has a little cloth page inside, where friends can write a message. This design posed a challenge - she had been there 33 years, and I wanted to have 33 books. The large center block allowed for one last book leaving the other rows even.
