Charming Recap

If you want to have an overview of the Elm Creek Quilters stories, and especially main character, Silvia, this can be a good book to listen to as a sample. It was an insightful view into some of the events in Silvia's life readers didn't have full insight to before.

The continuation of the Bergstrom family saga

The story is a paragon of writing… a tightly organized story of the family, with both stories of pre-WWII days through the decades to the modern time; Sylvia has grown on me as these stories have continued, and I am now quite fond of her. I’m really going to resume my quilting!

the story line

the story was good but very expected, and difficult to follow the back and for of the characters. The orator made it difficult to listen as the characters sounded much the same and the obvious clacking of the mouth

Great stand alone book

You do not need to read the previous books to pick up this one and understand the overview of the Elm Creek Quilt books. I may be reading in the wrong order, or maybe that was the intent. A good story. I feel the books end quickly. That is why I gave a 4 out of 5. I was left with wanting more detail as to the ending.

great

One of the best she has written. I have loved her books starting with the first she ever wrote.

Not impressed with this one

Seemed like just a summary of other books. Nothing really new, just pieces copied from other books in the series. I usually love these books but not impressed with this one.

Great to listen while sewing

I live to sew and sew to live. I love being able to listen to these wonderful stories of women lives, friendships and challenges while I'm sewing. You really don't need to know how to sew or quilt to appreciate thesae stories. I have also listened while driving and not wanted to get out of the car after an entire day of driving.

Pleasant read

This story had little new info and rambling story. I always enjoy hearing about my elm Creek folks but this is one I could have skipped.

Good read.

I would have been happier with less storyline review and more new information about characters. I never tire of quilting while I listen to Sylvia and her circle exploring their lives. Thanks, Jennifer.
