The Giving Quilt Audiobook

" Chiaverini is back! I was disappointed in the last couple books but this one was delightful. I was still left wishing for a better overarching story, but the new characters were fun and dynamic. The quilting descriptions left me eager to get to work on my sewing machine. The ending was very abrupt but overall, the book was a fun read for quilters. "

" I'm a sucker for this series due to my passion for the art of quilting:) "

" Another good book in the Elm Creek series-well written and thoughful. I liked the question "Why do you give". A little too much description of the quilting process for a non quilter but the concerns of the quilters were a reflection of the times, especially the concerns of Linnea who is a librarian in a small town. As a volunteer for a library her concerns mirror many libraries. "

" Makes me want to finish the quilt I started 8years ago. Was really hoping this was a real place. "

" This was a great book about giving back. A group of women spend a week at Elm Creek, while getting to know one another, (the author gives great personal details}, they make individual quilts while learning new techniques, for Quilts for Linus ministry. "

" This is one of Jennifer's better books. (I have read all of them to date). It takes place in the present time and covers everything from the untimely death of a spouse, the recession and job problems as a result, the "future" of books and libraries, online shopping and the repercussions for small businesses, quilting for charity, and of course the friendships formed by the women at the Quiltsgiving class. "

" Always enjoyable getting to know a few more women who become friends through their interest in quilting. Story is loosely woven together through a giving retreat to make quilts for project Linus. "

" Better than the last one. "

" Great addition of a few new characters. Loved the theme of giving too. "

" I did not think it was as good as her other books were in the Elm Creek series was. "

" I just plain enjoy this series. It's not that the books are so amazing, it's that the characters have become old friends to me. I feel like my old friends are back! "

" It was ok...not too exciting. "

" Not her best she brought her politics into it a bit to much for me. "

" Another great Elm Creek Quilters novel by Jennifer Chiaverini! Each one takes you back to old friends and a place where time seems to tick by a little slower. A great holiday read! "

" Really enjoyed this one. New characters, and old favorites. "

" I liked this book best of all the Elm Creek Novels I have read. Strong and detailed characters and a great story about their lives and why they are attending the Elm Creek Quiltsgiving. This book was hard for me to put down. Inspiring, both to give more and to start quilting! "

" Another Elm Creek Quilts novel gone by too fast! I really enjoyed the focus in giving, and may start a Giving Journal of my own. "

" I have loved all the Elm Creek Quilts novels! They are gentle reads, with engaging plots and characters. I highly recommend them. "

" There is a Linnea Nelson!!!! What's not to like!!!!! "

" I love this series, enjoyed this book "

" Wonderful book... I am not a quilter myself and do not want to be one... however I really love Jennifers books... They are so detailed and her charachters are very believeable... "

" A political diatribe disguised as a quilt novel...pro-union, anti-fox news, leftist garbage held together by weak threads and poor fabric. "

" Not my favorite in this series, but still worth the read. :D "
