Love quilting?
Have you read the Elm Creek Quilts novels? They're stories about women, families and relationships all interwoven with quilting and history. They are quite entertaining.
I've read several of them and have really enjoyed them so imagine my delight when I was asked if I would be interested in sharing a copy with y'all.
I've just stared reading my copy of Jennifer Chiaverini's newest book, The Wedding Quilt and am really enjoying it. Who doesn't love a wedding, especially when it's interwoven with a good story and a quilt!
Here's an excerpt of the synopsis from the publisher:
Sarah McClure arrived at Elm Creek Manor as a newlywed, never suspecting that her quilting lesson with master quilter Sylvia Bergstrom Compson would inspire the successful and enduring business Elm Creek Quilts, whose members have nurtured a circle of friendship spanning generations.
The Wedding Quilt opens as the wedding day of Sarah's daughter Caroline approaches. Sarah's thoughts are filled with brides of Elm Creek Manor past and present-the traditions they honored, the legacies they bequeathed, and the wedding quilts that contain their stories in every stitch.
So who wants to win a copy? I have one to share with you so to enter, simply leave a comment below.

OH, this looks like a good one. I love wedding novels! I've only read a few of the elm creek books, but they are definitely a guilty pleasure!
I've read most of them and have been waiting for this one to come out!
I would love to start reading these books so winning one would be a great way to start. Thanks.
One of my all time favorite series of books. I started reading them several years ago, and I believe they were influential in my desire to 'someday' quilt! Thank you for the chance to win the newest one.
I haven't read any of these books yet but I'd love to start!
i've not read this book ... i'd love to win your copy to read. thanx for the opportunity to do so.
I have read some of the earlier books and have really enjoyed them. Would love to read this one. Thanks for the chance.
I haven't heard of these books. Would love to try one! Thank you for the opportunity to win.
I LOVE the Elm Creek Quilt stories-I've read them all except this one. This is actually great timing, as I went to the library today to pick it up, only to find that I'm 68th in their list of people waiting to check it out. And they only have two copies. At this rate, it's going to take at least three years before I get to read it. I told my husband I was just going to go buy a copy and then donate it to the library so others wouldn't have to wait so long!
Love those books. Always wanted to go to quilt camp!
I love these books and haven't read this one yet!
I've been reading Jennifer's books since the beginning. I would love to win this latest one.
Thank you for the opportunity.

I love Jennifer's books. I usually "borrow" them from the library. I've read most of them, even though I'm not a quilter. Her stories are very captivating.

I read something in passing a while ago about Elm Creek Quilts but didn't know waht it was all about. I'm heading right now to get all the skinny and put all of them on my list to Santa.
What a great book concept, it sounds great! Would love to win!
Fun giveaway!! I haven't read any of the books, but this makes me want to start!! The picture reminds me of the back of my daughters wedding dress! Thanks for the chance to win!
