Opis

Annie, Celia and Lynn are all that are left of the Ward's Relief Society quilting class, but they are still determined to make baby quilts for the new mothers at church. Annie, who is just south of eighty years old, calls the quiltsters (short for quilting sisters) together to ask for more. She wants to make lap quilts to give to some of the "forgotten" oldsters she sings to each week at the nursing home-something to wrap them in love at Christmastime. It's a good idea, but the trio discovers that life and making quilts don't always go as planned. The quiltsters discuss recipes and quilting ideas including a crocheted cat mat to use up their fabric selvage and trim scraps, all of which they share in the book. Sarah and Brian meet at the university. Their first date is after Sarah's First Saturday Block of the Month class she attends with her mom at the local quilt shop. Their romance grows, and they plan their future together-a plan that will require them to be separated for six months before their wedding. But, can they bear to be apart that long? What wraps together this Christmas tale? The Fourteenth Quilt.
