Bookshelf round robin
 

I participated in a round robin with six other quilters from the US, England, and Australia. As a retired librarian, I chose a bookshelf theme. Because seven shelves would result in a rather skinny quilt, I decided to make the quilt square by adding a second range of shelving with a wall above to incorporate a UFO from a class I took with David Taylor. I'm really pleased with the result.

That looks so nice!

What a great idea with the landscape picture. I love it.

Looks great!

Oh how wonderful, I am enthralled. It is truly unique and a interesting setting. What a wonderful collaboration. I just keep looking to see all the wonderful things you have incorporated.

Fabulous bookshelf quilt!

Love the titles on the shelf.:cool:

A great book shelf quilt.

Very nice and how appropriate for you to own a quilt relating to library shelves and books.

A beautiful quilt and a very clever idea to square it up.

What a neat quilt. You did such a great job with all your books and other elements. You reminded me I should pull out my David Taylor UFO and finish it!

Really neat and unique. Great job.

You should be pleased, your work is very nice indeed. I like how you turned your vision into reality.

how fun! that looks so cool--I'm thinking a bookshelf quilt is on my to-do list.

nicely done

I love your bookcase! All the different types of books are so interesting. Your idea of adding your UFO is really a great idea!

Excellent!!!

So Cool! Or is it Hot!? Anyway, I love this.

This is one of the nicest bookshelf quilts I've ever seen! That was a good idea to widen it like that. I like the accessories you added to the top of the bookcase and the "picture" on the wall.

Nice bookcase quilt.

Neat bookcase quilt! Fun addition of the side unit and decor.

Thanks so much! On the top, there's a jar of thread, a picture of a loon (from a wallhanging I made my late Dad), and a snowglobe with Elvis in it. I wanted something whimsical. This was a really fun project!

Very cool. Adding the picture makes it look like a stair-step bookcase. Nice touch!

Clever and creative quilt. Nice to have the whimsy added to make it a true original quilt.

It turned out wonderfully...it sounds like a fun and talented Round Robin group.

It looks great! I really l like the bookshelf quilts; doing one is on my bucket list.

Cool quilt and great theme.
