Bookcase Quilt/Throw

I plan to make bookcase quilt. Thinking I will need to SITD each book. Any other suggestions are welcomed.

I just happened on some images in searching Yahoo. One had used some cut off selvages from fabrics and added them to the "books" as titles! great idea!! I am going to make one soon. well one day and hope to remember this.

I have a completed bookcase quilt top and don't know how it should be quilted either! My plan is to take it to my long-armer, she is a genius. Will be watching this thread.

Look on pinterest to get some ideas. I like when they lean or stack books on the end. I love when they add knick knacks on the shelves too. Book titles should push your quilt over the top......good luck.
