Have you read Jennifer Chiaverini's books?

You should start with the first book, and work your way through the series, so you will get to know the characters, and so everything will make sense.... You'll love them all!

"The Quilter's Apprentice" is the first book in the Elm Creek Quilts series. There are 19 books in all. I was able to find books 1, 3 and 4 at my library but they don't have book 2. What's up with that?

It's almost the perfect time of year here in New England. Fall is unbelievably gorgeous. It's what I love most about living here.

Cyndi, much of our home is in varying shades of green, it is my favorite color:)

I really enjoy Marie Bostwicks books, she develops the charachters, and weaves a thoughtful story, using issues from the present.

My library will only search the "network" of other libraries if you ask. I always ask now.

I forgot about ILL. I'll ask about it tomorrow for Book #2. Thanks, Lisa. You're a genius.

I read a few of her books, and while they were nice they didn't really hold my attention. Cyndi, I am willing to give you mine if you want them.....shall we call it a belated birthday present?

Jennifer Chiaverini will be doing a trunk show at the Madison, Wis. quilt expo on Sept. 5 & 6. I am hoping to get in to see her, I have read a couple of her books and enjoyed them.

I went to Goodwill today and by chance they had "The Quilter'a Apprentice" for 37 cents!!! I will read it and bring it along to the gathering at Missouri Star in October for anybody else interested in reading it. I also got the Little House on the Prairie series of books for $3.00. One of these days I will have someone interested in reading them and it was just too good of a deal to pass up.

I've read several of her books & enjoyed them all. I just ordered some others, used as well as new, from Amazon. So happy reading ahead! :) JCY
