| The Quilter's Apprentice,
Round
Robin and Cross-Country
Quilters. A rich, vibrant novel
by a talented new writer. Jennifer Chiaverini has crafted a beautiful, moving
novel with The Quilter's Apprentice. Like the quilts and settings she describes, this is a
rich, involving story, full of memorable characters - especially master quilter Sylivia
Compson. As seen through her eyes during a series of stories told to young Sarah McClure,
Sylvia's family becomes remarkably and sometimes heartbreakingly real. You will care about
the lives of these characters. An enjoyable, satisfying book from beginning to end.
The sequel is Round Robin, fleshing out the lives of the characters
and leaving you anxious for the next book in the series, the
Cross-Country Quilters. Visit the website
for more information, including scheduled guest appearances. |
