Do you like to read? Do you like to make art quilts? Has a book ever moved you, left you thinking or inspired? Use that feeling and challenge yourself to make a quilt based on that book. Better yet join the banned books week bandwagon and make one based on a book that has been challenged or banned just to say to the world - "I read this book and liked it!" Sandy at quiltingfortherestofus and Tanesha at crafty garden mom are having a little challenge. Go here to see Sandy's blog posts about it. There is a flickr group to post your finished quilts. I love seeing the different books and quilts so please join in so I can look at yours ;-)
I'm working on mine now and here is a sneak peak.
Can you guess what book? It will make sense when it's done. Right now you are no doubt saying WWWAAAT?
Hint: this book just came out in the past year and although it isn't on the list yet - it most certainly will be and I am sure it has been banned or challenged already somewhere.
banned books week is Sept. 27 - Oct 3rd so you have lots of time to put one together.
What's your favorite book on the list?
