I read about the Bloggers Quilt Festival this morning and what a great idea! A quilt show in my jamies with music and coffee. So I present..Don't Bug Me I'm Reading. I have a series of quilts (in my head as well as made) that speak to reading. Click to enlarge the photo to get all the details. My favorite part is the book worm in the tree. It is machine appliqued and machine quilted by me. The blue bird of happiness gets in the picture, after all reading makes me happy. Have a good time at the show.

If I could only find a way to read and quilt at the same time. Well, I did start listening to audio books this year and find it great for when I am hand quilting.

Love your quilt.
