SynopsisJennifer Chiaverini's bestselling Elm Creek Quilts series continues with "The Winding Ways Quilt," in which the arrival of newcomers into the circle of quilters heralds unexpected journeys down pathways near and far. Quilters have flocked to Elm Creek Manor to learn from Master Quilter Sylvia Compson and her expert colleagues. There's Sarah, Sylvia's onetime apprentice who's paired her quilting accomplishments with a mind for running the business of Elm Creek Quilts; Agnes, who has a gift for applique; Gwen, who stitches innovative art quilts; Diane, a whiz at the technicalities of quick-piecing; and Bonnie, with her encyclopedic knowledge of folk art patterns. But with Judy and Summer, two other founding members of the Elm Creek Quilters, departing to pursue other opportunities, will the new teachers be able to fill in the gaps created by the loss of their expertise -- and more important, their friendship?"When I think of all the different paths I could have followed in my life, all the twists and turns that could have led me anywhere," muses incoming teacher Gretchen, "it's something of a miracle that I ended up here, surrounded by loving friends."But what of friends departed? As Sylvia contemplates a tribute to the partnership of the Elm Creek Quilters, she is reminded of a traditional quilt pattern whose curved pieces symbolize a journey. Winding Ways, a mosaic of overlapping circles and intertwining curves, would capture the spirit of their friendship at the moment of its transformation.Will Sylvia's choice inspire the founding members to remember that each is a unique part of a magnificent whole? Will the newcomers find ways to contribute, and to earn their place? "TheWinding Ways Quilt" considers the complicated, often hidden meanings of presence and absence, and what change can mean for those who have come to rely upon one another., Jennifer Chiaverini's bestselling Elm Creek Quilts series continues with THE WINDING WAYS QUILT, in which the arrival of newcomers into the Circle of Quilters illuminates the ways that life takes each and every one of us down unexpected paths., As Elm Creek Quilt Camp opens for a new season, there will be new faces on the faculty. Quilters have flocked to learn from the Master Quilter, Sylvia Compson, and her expert colleagues, each of whom specialises in a different aspect of the craft., Chiaverini's bestselling Elm Creek Quilts series continues with "The Winding Ways Quilt," in which the arrival of newcomers to the Circle of Quilters illuminates the power of friendship to navigate life's unexpected pathways.
