I would decorate my classroom for each holiday and season with quilts. I used the same ones each year and added a few over time. The students looked forward to seeing certain quilts come out year after year. I would save this beauty till next year and then you can decide what to do with it.

You could send it to me and then I could use it with the 4 matching pillowcases I made. Just kidding. Use it every year until you retire and then you can decide to leave it in the library or bring it home for your grandchildren. Cute well made quilt!!

A reading reward for the class that reads the most in a month? each grade/class would READ to see who gets to display it for the next month Teachers and students (and you) would each be proud to see and enjoy!!

Stick to your plan. Once a good thought is there i don't let anything ruin it. It is a wonderful thing to buy books so the kids can read. You will be doing generations a good favor, than just keeping it at home knowing you can make more like it. Trust me good things always happen after that, and nothing is more rewarding than bringing joy to kids (JMHO). ;)

I also like your idea of auctioning it off so the school can buy more books for the library.
