Last book of series. I like the mysteries, but cannot get past the ghosts [no such thing!!!} and her silly romances. You're a grown woman, Lily, make up your mind. Carrie Ann is a favorite of mine.

After starting and stopping many books without finishing I knew I needed to clear my head by reading something light and enjoyable. This was the perfect story to make myself happy to read again. While light the story included mystery, drama and happiness. Most of all I have learned so much about quilts while reading this series.

Loved the whole series, could not wait for the next book! Learned so much about antique quilts & preservation plus history! Especially enjoyed all the sisters camaraderie, community loyalty and great wine! I am a quilter but mostly table runners, wall hangings even lots of baby quilts! I created photo album with name of the pattern, date & gifted!

Great

This series is a great read. This book is the ending for this series but I did not like the ending so much as I felt it still left some loose ends. But at least the lost quilt was found. I will seek out this author's other stories and read those as well.

Wonderful quilt story.

I liked that this quilt book had a mystery and love story in it. The people ranged in age from teens to the elderly, which shows how all people could be friends and quilt lovers.

Good book

Love Ann Hazelwood books but I get tried of having to buy another in the series. Like to read a book and be done with it

another great series!

Loved the 5 book series centering around quilts. There is a good mystery and some “ghosts” to add to the fun.

I hate to see these series ending!

These characters came alive to me! Even reading in the summer and fall I felt
Like I had snow on my lawn when I went outside!

Could have been a5

I would have given it a five if Marc and Lily had gotten married. Other than that, I enjoyed it.

[cheryl mendenhall · Rating 3 out of 5]

Overall this was an enjoyable read, but also just an average story. Ann Hazelwood has a conversational style of writing that makes reading the books easy, maybe too easy. There are lots of typos and formatting errors that are disruptive. I'm a quilter and I want to read stories involving quilts, quilters, and quilting and wouldn't mind more depth to the plot and characters. This five book series ended with several unfinished plotlines and characters with unresolved issues. Definitely not a satisfying way to end, in my opinion.
