An accident has
damaged the local church that was going to host the annual Christmas Boutique
fundraiser. In order to make it so the fundraiser
will happen, Sylvia Bergstrom Compson
allows her family manor to be used for the event. The manor has an interesting history and is
currently being used for the Elm Creek Quilt Camp. Will the ladies be able to get the manor ready
in time to host a successful Christmas Boutique?
I enjoyed this
book. This was a good story about a
variety of different lady quilters that are all different ages and how they
came to love quilting. It also shares the
trials and the tribulations in their lives.
This novel is part of the Elm Creek Quilt series, but I haven’t read any
of the other books in the series. Each chapter
was about a specific woman and it gave enough background for me to understand
the character and what was going on in the story. I really loved the detail and learning about each
character. I would love to read more of
this series.
Favorite Quotes:
“If you brood over
the past, you can’t enjoy the present or the future.”
“As long as Elm Creek
Manor stood, compassion and generosity would infuse every class taught, every
meal shared, and every story shared within its gray stone walls, not only at
Christmas, but every day, year after year.
Overall, The Christmas
Boutique is a warm Christmas tale filled with quilting and interesting women.
