Weaves the stories of a quilting circle together. I thought it started off with promise but started flagging at the halfway mark.
I think I prefer the movie.

Have you heard of a Man Called Øve? This is the American female Christmas version! Two women have given up on Christmas. When a poor immigrant family next door has an emergency, a series of events, and a quilt, bring a myriad of people together to save Christmas and bring good cheer. An adorable story I‘d definitely make a regular holiday read. #Snowangels #WinterGames

All I need is a #letterQ book to get an #atoz bingo for #wintergames. So I‘m starting this one today.

Kansas 1864. Eliza Spooner‘s husband Will has gone to fight the Civil War. She fills her days by making a special quilt for Will to keep him warm at night. She also takes in a war widow with a daughter. These 2 women and their 3 kids are fighting their own war - against thieves, spiteful in-laws, and the upkeep of the farm, crops, repairs and livestock. Poignant story.

4 ⭐This book may be a little long, but the story is heartfelt. It is about a selfish king who wants presents and gifts from everybody. The one present he can‘t have is a quilt from the lady in the mountains. She only makes quilts for people who can‘t afford them. She tells the king give of yourself and I will make you a quilt. The king will not do this. Instead, he punishes the old lady and in turn just punishes himself.

Several years ago my sister participated in a quilt challenge based on a Beatles theme. She chose to make a quilt of “Carry That Weight” while another quilter used #letitbe as their inspiration. The organizers put together a book of everyone‘s creations. #volumesandvocals
In honor of National Quilting Day here are 3 of my favorite quilts that I‘ve made. The top two were wedding gifts and the other was for myself from fabric gifted to me by a friend. I loved the Elm Creek Quilt series of books and hope to make quilts from the companion quilting books one day.
