Oh that is *amazing*

She asked me what books I would like on it! A lot of my very favorites ever are with me, though. It is still amazingly amazing.

wow. That is amazing! I've made a couple of quilts before, but nothing this elaborate!

The scanner was involved, as was some sort of print on fabric arrangement. I was really impressed by the piecing of the bookshelf down at the bottom. That's our bookshelf from when I was a kid.

What an awesome quilt! Your mother was clearly inspired when she got the idea for that quilt.

It started to come together about eight years ago when we were brainstorming about what she should do for me for a quilt. We poked ideas back and forth. That was the general idea we came up with, except we were originally thinking just colored fabric and titles of books. It was Dad's idea to scan the book spines. I'm not sure whether this should be a wall quilt or a bed quilt.

I can see why that would be a hard decision. Personally, I'd go for being able to cuddle with my books, but well-loved books do get a bit dog-eared after awhile.

I'm rough on my blankets, but a proper quilt does want to be used.

This is made of awesome.

Isn't it, though? I really got lucky with mothers.
