Trick or treat! Well, it's definitely a treat today. The first chapter of my forthcoming Elm Creek Quilts novel, A Quilter's Holiday, is now online. Please click on the "Books" link above for more details.

Do you love the gorgeous cover as much as I do? It was adapted from a quilt called "Thankful Harvest" by Janet Miller, and I'm very grateful that Janet gave us permission to use her beautiful artwork.
Her pattern is available for purchase at Quilters' Warehouse. Thanks, Janet!
Dear Elm Creek Readers,
I’m very pleased to announce the publication of my thirteenth Elm Creek Quilts book, The Quilter’s Kitchen, a collection of 100 delicious recipes stitched together with a little story about friendship and celebrating traditions, old and new.

For the Elm Creek Quilters, sharing recipes and dishes is a natural extension of the fellowship of their craft. Yet even the fondest of traditions can benefit from innovation, so Master Quilter Sylvia Bergstrom Compson endeavors to “clear out the old and make way for the new” in Elm Creek Manor’s kitchen, which hasn’t been renovated for decades. At her side is Chef Anna, one of the newest members of the circle of quilters, who has accepted the position on the condition of the kitchen upgrade. She’s hoping to elevate her own status, too, from colleague to trusted friend.
Please click on the “Events” link to see if my book tour will bring me to a town near you.
Happy Quilting, Reading, and Cooking!
Jennifer
