    Love, love, love her books. I'm glad there is a new one out, I will have to check the book store the next time I am in the city.

    I just bought Sylvia's bridal sampler and am all excited! If you look on the author's website she has pictures posted of all of the quilts that are featured in the books. Some she has pieced, some other people have done. They are beautifully done.

    There are certain books that are best read in order but she jumps back in time on some of them. I love these books!

    Awesome books aren't they??
    Yes, Jennifer has a couple of pattern books out there, and there is even a forum somewhere dedicated to the Sylvia Bridal quilt...

    Thankfully she is busily working on the next book... there are things we need to know! LOL

    I haven't read the books yet, but I do have the Bridal Sampler book...I figured to tackle that one before I try Dear Jane. It's still pretty without looking nearly so intimidating! ;)

    The books are wonderful. I am going through and rereading the Quilter's Legacy. It's one of my favorites in the series. The reason I asked, I thought later one down the line I'd attempt the sampler Sarah made in the first one and have it as a wedding quilt.

    That quilt is in one of the pattern books, I can let you know which one when I get home tonight (I'm at work).
