I'd read almost every book by Jennifer Chiaverini, I love them, and the last ones are more about history and Civil War, not too much about quilts (less interesting for me)
About the twins, are Sarah's babys: a girl and a boy. In the Wedding quilt (happening twenty years from now) Caroline (the girl) is getting married.
I'd read also some by Marie Bostwick too, and actually I'm reading one right now. I like it!
Thank yo for all this information, I'll check some authors.
have a nice day!

I just finish one this morning. It's called Murder, Plain and Simple. (I know that book titles are supposed to be underlined, but I can't make my laptop do it.) It's the first in a new series by Isabella Alan, takes place in Amish country in Ohio, in a quilt shop and was quite good. The next one in the series comes out next May. Hope I remember by then.

Although I did not ask the original question thanks for the names/titles of more quilt related fiction....winter is coming quickly(snow) yesterday so soon time to hibernate and curl up with a roaring fire in the fireplace and a good book and hot chocolate!

Thank you especially to Patricia14 --the results I was hoping to get. Interesting post so now I can get these in a list for Christmas gifts to me from family as they always want to find something I want or need.

I just loved the one by Sandra Dallas, "Prayers For Sale". It had a surprise ending that I was not expecting. Great read. I'm now just starting "The Persian Pickle Club" also by Sandra. Thanks for this thread. I love to read books with the quilting theme.

I recently picked up Quilt Or Innocence by Elizabeth Craig. Have to admit that I'm only halfway through and it's not one of those books that draws me back to it. I'll keep reading and eventually finish it. Maybe it'll grow on me. Pulling it out is worth it just to see my husband start giggling over the title -because I'm just so quilt crazy- and he can't believe I even read quilts.
