Crazy Quilting for Book Club

Rebecca's Decorations .... The Host of Book Club Christmas

My gift for the exchange was this crazy quilt... i make a challenge for myself to create a gift that reflects all the books, we have read this year. My choice was to make a clutch purse. We have read 10 books this year. So my embellishments were sometimes, subtle hints or blatant clues as to each book represented. It was a joy to make and I was happy to see member, Valerie was the one to receive my gift.

We always have great fun with all the gifts and wrappings. Of course, it is a game to get each gift and much laughter and thoughts were done trying to guess which book the gift represents. My list of books read 2009 are on a earlier post.

My gift was from the book "The Guynd" it was a wonderful Victorian lap writing desk with a pitcher of Royal Dalton and antique dollies. Thank you Linda, I love my gift. You chose gifts from your book, a lovely book about an American renovating a Scottish ancestral home.

I must now get busy with my decorating and Christmas projects...
