Terrific bookcase. One to study, to find a treasure whether it be a book or a memento.

A bookcase worth browsing and finding a written treasure! I feel as if it were in my own home!

This is really an interesting quilt, with so much detail it takes a long time to see everything but my favorite addition is the page out of the Dick and Jane reader.Love its.

Margaret, your bookcase looks like one I would want to sit down and pull out a book and begin my adventure. Thank you.

I so agree with leafy! Absolutely love this bookcase, with not only lots of fun 'books' , but the memorabilia with them on the shelves. This is what my bookcase would probably look like if I didn't have an ereader. I still have some actual books but not as many anymore.

Most bookcase quilts are kind of boring, but this one has so many interesting details! Including the book titles! Love it...good job!
