The Elm Creek Quilters are home for the holidays in this
heartwarming Christmas story from New York Times bestselling author
Jennifer Chiaverini.
For the Elm Creek Quilters, the day after Thanksgiving marks the
start of the quilting season, a time to gather at Elm Creek Manor
and spend the day stitching holiday gifts for loved ones. This
year, in keeping with the season's spirit of gratitude, Master
Quilter Sylvia Bergstrom Compson Cooper is eager to revive a
cherished family tradition. A recent remodeling of the manor's
kitchen unearthed a cornucopia that once served as the centerpiece
of the Bergstrom family's holiday table. Into it, each Bergstrom
would place an object that symbolized something he or she was
especially thankful for that year. On this quilter's holiday,
Sylvia has invited her friends to continue the tradition by sewing
quilt blocks that represent their thankfulness and gratitude.
As each quilter explains the significance of her carefully chosen
block, stories of love and longing for family and friends
emerge--feelings that are also expressed in the gifts they work on
throughout the day. An early winter storm blankets Elm Creek Manor
in heavy snow as the quilters find new meanings in their best-loved
traditions and new reasons to be thankful. "A Quilter's Holiday "is
a story of holiday spirit, in its truest, most generous sense.
