In March it is my turn to ask for Friendship Blocks from one of my quilt guilds.
I would like to have them all do a section of a bookshelf or bookcase. Using items such as books, planters, knick-knacks, etc.
I have been collecting pictures and ideas for a couple years.
Do any of you have (free or cheap!) pictures or patterns of book shelves or ideas you have done?
I need help with instructions for the blocks. Do I have them just do the blocks with a common background and then I put the "shelf" part on? Should the books be all the way to the front edge of the 'shelf' or back a bit? What about height and length? Help!!
I am sort of thinking of having them use selvedge edges for the book titles and using their own names for the authors? Or they can make up their own titles.
Doesn't that sound like fun?
