Totally dependent on their budgets and priorities set as a result of the budgets ..... no, not all libraries would buy quilt books, let alone specifically requested books of other subject matters.

Ask your librarian. Inter library loan almost always works for me. My daughter is a reference librarian and encourages me to check before buying. She knows how much stuff I already have.

Hello to Everyone who has taken the time to help me figure out this pattern! The suggestions have been a great resource for me. In searching this post/tutorial came up comparing "Birds in the Air" to "Grandmother's Choice", which are also similar to the "The Kitchen Woodbox.

Just having names of blocks has given me so many ways 'to go' in constructing this block, again many thanks from a grateful member!
