I think I remember a quilt pattern a few years ago that looked like a bookcase with books on the shelves. I don't remember how the "books" were made. Do any of you know where I could locate the pattern? Thanks so much for your help.

There's a really wonderful pattern called "Book Club" in the Modern Quilt workshop book by Weeks Ringle and Bill Kerr. If you want a picture of it, let me know and I'll take one with my phone and email it to you. If you don't have this book, you should get it--amazing patterns in it.
