    Okay, I am dense. Did you put right sides together and stitch it up then turn it out and quilt only the center part? I am asking because I get in trouble every time I try this. Something ends up bunched up towards the borders. But...if you don't quilt the borders, then it doesn't matter. It looks like this is what you did but I can't really tell. Your quilt looks great and I think you're right about libraries. Ours are under such budget cuts that they are only open 24 hours a week now. But they are still not charging for held books or to order books on loan from other libraries. I think you made a great gift. You're a good egg.

    I am the Library Chicken and I went to get a book,book,book. I ran into the library frog to show him, and all he said was "Ireadit" You have to read it quick but its fun. Just like that darling little quilt.
