Book Review


THE CHRISTMAS QUILT
By Jennifer Chiaverini

'A heartwarming novel filled with the memories and traditions of Elm Creek Manor's indomitable master quilter, Sylvia Bergstrom Compson. Infused with wisdom and rich with the flavors of the holidays, THE CHRISTMAS QUILT is a timeless tale that Elm Creek Quilts devotees are sure to cherish.
With her eight Elm Creek Quilts novels -- which the Dallas Morning News has deemed "classics of their kind" -- New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Chiaverini has inspired a legion of devoted readers by blending old-fashioned storytelling with a celebration of traditional women's arts. Chiaverini gives her fans a long-hoped-for holiday-themed story in THE CHRISTMAS QUILT, a homespun novel filled with the memories and traditions of Elm Creek Manor's indomitable master quilter, Sylvia Bergstrom Compson.





I picked up this book because the cover and size of the book were attractive to me.

Also, The Chef is now a Quilter, and an extremly Talented one if I may say so.

I found the book well written and comfortable. I felt like I was at home from page one. The characteers, traditions and wisdom the story contain held me enchated all the way through. It was wonderful to find there was a series....
