    Has anyone done a book case quilt? Any advice is welcome.

    Google them & do a search on this board. I made one for my son a writer. Copied pictures of his books onto fabric and made other books from fabric. I used salvages for the titles. They are such fun to make. I also used fabric that looked like wood grain; which I found online. You will find lots of ideas!

    I agree with Scraps. I always get inspired by the photo gallery to look at to find the right pattern that I want to use.

    If you google, they are also called library quilts.

    I found a pattern not to long ago. It does not have exact sizes, but you might like to have it just the same.
