Jennifer Chiaverini is the New York Times bestselling author of thirty-three novels, including acclaimed historical fiction and the beloved Elm Creek Quilts series. She has also written seven quilt pattern books inspired by her novels. A graduate of the University of Notre Dame and the University of Chicago, she lives with her husband and two sons in Madison, Wisconsin. About her historical fiction, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writes, "In addition to simply being fascinating stories, these novels go a long way in capturing the texture of life for women, rich and poor, black and white, in those perilous years."
I read this book for book club. I did enjoy the book very much but at times felt like it was dragging. Great story about a quilting club, a widowed woman, A young lady not happy being unemployed but finding pleasure in quilting, her husband a landscaper and a jilted sister in law. Each searching for happiness. All set at Elm Creek Manir.
