At Festival of Quilts 2013 the Tombola will offer an amazing collection of Bookwraps (bookcovers) to treasure. The Festival of Quilts 2013 will take place from August 8 – 11 in Birmingham, England. We are organising the Bookwrap Gems Tombola in support of the Quilters’ Guild Museum and Gallery in York.
Contemporary Quilt invites you to join the Bookwrap Gem Project by making a wrap or cover using any materials, in any style that you enjoy working with. Decorate it, be experimental, find a use for a project that’s lain unloved for a while, whatever you like, but do take part!

To see all the Bookwrap Gems click here or on Bookwrap Gems in the menu. To see all the Bookwrap Gems made by one maker click on the name in the Makers box in the sidebar. To see all the Bookwrap Gems made using a particular technique click on the technique in the Tags box in the sidebar.
It would be nice if we could also know the makers’ blog address (those who have one anyway), so that we could see some more of this lovely work!
I couldn’t make a comment on one of the bookwraps-they were all so interesting and different.Lynda
What a lovely project. Just making a start. How many are you hoping for?
As many as possible, so please keep wrapping!!!
