Speaking of quilts...


My friend and Texas school librarian, Angela Sides, saw my post about the quilt for book lovers.

She shared with me these pics of an awesome quilt that her fellow librarians made for her adorable little cowboy (i.e., new baby). These are all their favorite picture books. (The quilt was made by librarian Dannette Jurgens.)


Of course, Angela won't let that little cowboy anywhere near her quilt. haha. Look but don't touch!

Barbara - this quilt that they made is beautiful. Do you know I never thought of making one out of book covers. I have made them with photographs. What a great idea. Hey, It looks to me like you have enough books to have a quilt made out of your books. By the way I am a big fan of yours since I heard you speak at the Eric Carle Museum. Thank you for the wonderful stories that you share with us.
