    Hey amma, pm me we should all read it together and comment on it! Thanks Shawn :mrgreen:
    Ok, I got my book!

    I'm going to start on it tonight, hopefully.

    Maybe we could start a book club? Nothing official, just pick a book, and have monthly thread discussing it? Maybe make them all pertain to quilting in some way?

    Just an idea. I love to read as much as I love to sew!

    I think that is a very lovely idea and that it will be a wonderful thing for your son! :mrgreen: :thumbup:

    Sounds like a great idea to me! Why don't you pick the next book that you think everyone might like? :thumbup: :mrgreen:
