What I'm Reading...

It's no secret that I love a good read...and it's also not a secret that I love the Elm Creek Quilt books that are written by Jennifer Chiaverini.
I've read them from the very beginning and have loved every one of them... especially the historical fiction ones like The Lost Quilter...

which is a sequel to this one...The Runaway Quilt...which has been my very, very favorite in the series so far.

It's really hard to pick a favorite but this is one that I loved so much.

And now Jennifer has just released #17 in the series...

The Union Quilters... and I'm so excited that it's also in the same time period as The Runaway Quilt and The Lost Quilter....which is during the Civil War.

I just started it so I can't give you a review just yet...but I can tell you that I am positive that I won't be dissapointed:)

If you havn't read her books yet, I highly recommend them.

You really don't have to read them in the order that Jennifer has written to enjoy them but I suggest that you do read the first 3 in order so that you understand who the characters are and what the series is all about.
The first three are...

1. The Quilters Apprentice

2. Round Robin

3. The Cross-Country Quilters

All 3 books are now available together in one large book called Elm Creek Quilts Sampler.

If you decide to give them a whirl...let me know how you like them.

Well that's it for now girls...I hope you have a quilty kind of day...
