 Disappointing February 14, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have thouroughly enjoyed the previous books, but was extremely disappointed with this book. It is a rather short book anyway, and then the majority consisted of rehashed stories from other books. The impression I get is that the author had a deadline, and did not have enough new ideas (or time) to flesh out a new and interesting story. I would never have purchased this (particularly hardcover) if I had realized how little this had to offer. The only reason I give 2 stars instead of 1, is that I did read the book through - it wasn't bad enough to leave it unfinished. But I will certainly read reviews of her future novels before I consider buying another. If you have read her other books, you can safely skip this one, or at most check it out from the library.
 Historic facts February 13, 2008

Jennifer's books continue to inspire both quilters and non-quilters. Her books are full of historic facts combined with quilts and their heritage.
Book New Years Quilt February 9, 2008

Another wonderful Elm Creek Quilters book by Jennifer C. Easy to read and like being welcomed home by old friends. Jennifer makes me want to rush out and start a new project to quilt with friends. Looking forward to the new book to be released soon. These are hard to get in Australia so it will be another trip back to Amazon when it is released...or maybe I should pre order? Recommend this author to anyone who loves quilting or who is looking for a present for a quilting friend.
A disapointing rehash February 3, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I love this series of books, BUT more than 2/3 of this book is a rehash of previous books. Since I had already read (and paid for those) I feel I should only have had to pay for the NEW material. lol Skip this book and read the rest.
 Elm Creek Fan January 29, 2008
AS always I enjoy the Elm Creek series. I thought that this book touched new modern day emotions with the characters involved. It was a fast read.
