(  ) AdorableArlene | Oct 1, 2009 |  Like the other Elm Quilt books, this one is heartwarming and easy to read. The author has a gift for capturing the true sense of relationships. The story is the same throughout the book, but each chapter is the same basic story told from the viewpoint of different people. At the end, it all comes together well, as you'd expect. Predictable, but heartwarming all the same. (  ) 2kidsandtired | Jul 28, 2009 | Another wonderful installment in the Elm Creek series. I'm just not sure I liked the way it was layed out. First we find out what happens over the period of a couple of weeks. Then we switch to another character & find out what happened to her. Then another & then another. On one hand it was kind of cool because you don't get the whole story at once but on the other it was a tad annoying because you're just reading a lot of the same thing over & over. (  ) buckeyeaholic | Aug 28, 2007 | I love this series of books, but this one fell a bit short for me. The use of going over the same time frame, from different peoples' viewpoints, was an interesting idea for the story, but it got a bit repetitive for me. I did find some sentence problems in a few places that probably should have gotten caught in editing. I do look forward though to readng the next book in the series. (  ) Allie64 | Dec 9, 2006 | Interesting book. I've liked some of the others a bit better, but it was a different way of writing (each chapter was the same thing but from a different characters perspective). Although each character brought their own things to what happened, I felt like I was reading the same thing over and over, because, well, I was!

| Book description |
|
Such little white lies seem harmless enough. But the quilting retreat at Elm Creek Manor thrives on women sharing their creativity, their challenges and their dreams. Somehow, in their race to commemorate in the bridal quilt all they hold dear about Sylvia’s wisdom, skill and devotion, her fellow quilters forget to give honesty its pride of place.
Just when it seems that the women have everything to celebrate, forces conspire to threaten their happiness and prosperity. Two among them falter in their personal relationships, while another suffers financial problems. As still two others weigh the comfort of the present against dreams of a future far from Elm Creek Manor, closely guarded secrets strain the bonds of friendship with those who may be left behind.
