There are some really helpful tips here. Thank you, Rebecca.

Brilliant!

Thank goodness the weather was so bad…or I would have been off down the “stuff shop” fast as lightning after seeing all these lovely patterns.

The building is fascinating. We hated it when it appeared with its ‘old bicycle wheels’ struck on the outside but when it is lit up in the evenings it is stunning. The inside, and the roof terraces, are clean and inviting with lots of comfy seating places to read your books or just contemplate the world or view the exhibitions. Rumour had it that they had run out of money to stock new books so it isn’t rammed to the rooftops – but technology plays a part in that, this is a fab design and looks lovely in the picture frame Sue. The frame reinforces the clean lines seen on this modern building. Well done – it is a lovely representation! .

What lovely quilting! It certainly complements your accurate design. Angles and curves all in one place. I really enjoyed reading this blog. It brought back many memories, as I used both the lovely old Reference Library ( when I was a student) and the Central Library. This was new then (when taking my Finals in 1974). I was rather shocked that it was being replaced after only 40 years and very amused to see that the upside-down ziggurat has been replaced by a another, right-side-up ziggurat!

Such fun!

Love it!

Lovely poem!

Aww!

What a truly informative article. It is really interesting to see how local ways have entered the traditions.

Lovely to hear about the different traditions

Love it. Such an evocative song too.
