The New Year’s Quilt by Jennifer Chiaverini 03/27/08

In this book, Sylvia and Andrew are having a honeymoon in New York City and then going to tell Andrew’s daughter, Amy, that they got married over Christmas.  It’s problematic because Amy doesn’t approve of the marriage.

As with many of Chiaverini’s books, the present is woven with the past.  In this, the reader gets another side of Sylivia’s family history.

The Christimas Quilt - Jennifer Chiaverini 11/24/07

I thought this was a new book but it was from 2005. It was just in the New Book section of the library for some reason.

In this book, Sylvia remembered a quilt her Great Aunt Lucinda started, her mother worked on, her sister worked on and now Sarah found it and took it up.

It’s a nice story as all the Elm Creek Quilt stories are.
