The Runaway Quilt (Elm Creek Quilts Series #4) [Paperback] Review

This was truly a book that I could not put down. It is the first of the Elm Creek books that I read and now I have purchased the rest to enjoy. The flow of the story was wonderful. And I easily moved between the days of Gerda and the modern day Sylvia.It is at once a mystery and a tale of adventure and romance.
Through Ms. Chiaverini's skillful writing, we feel equally at home in either the 19th or 21th centuries. So skillful and artistic are her desceiptions, that we, the readers are front and center with our two leading ladies at all times.
The cast of extras, from Hans and Andrew to Dorothea and Grace, all add to the rich tapestry that makes up this story.
Whether you are a quilter or not, this book puts us in touch with the past and reminds us to look back and see the fiber from which we are all made. If you are not a quilter, it certainly is an inspiration to try it out as a hobby
We are never quite sure of the answer to the questions in Sylvia's mind, but that does not matter.What we do know however, is that in her past were brave and daring people who stood for what was right in a time when so much was wrong.

Say It with Quilts [Hardcover] Review

I agree with the reviewer from Incline Village, NV.The book has cute patterns! I saw the HGTV show where they showcased "Molly's Quilt" -- the beautiful pansy quilt. They said on the show the quilt was good for beginners. That inspired me to purchase the book. We all have to start somewhere in quilting and this book gives me ideas for selecting colors, something so hard to do when we all start out.Maybe the quiltsin the book are not perfectly sewn, but I would be glad to claim any one of them as mine. Quilts don't have to be tiny complicated triangles and curves to be beautiful and this book proves it.

If you enjoy the Elm Creek Quilters series, and like to quilt, this book is fantastic. The quilts are beautiful! The book is very well written with clear and concise instructions, and beautifully photographed. I really like that the traceable templates are full size as well, a big plus.
