A Quilted Christmas




















A Quilted Christmas, by Melody Carlson, introduces Vera Swanson on the opening pages of this tale. This elderly woman has loved and celebrated Christmas for most of her life. Now, after the passing of her husband and her two grown children moving away with her grandchildren, Vera will likely spend the holiday alone. She definitely has no incentive to decorate! 

When a young girl shows up on her doorstep saying her mother is in trouble, Vera jumps in to help. Fiona’s mother needs medical assistance. After Vera drops Fiona’s mother at the hospital, she brings Fiona home with her. After Fiona sees a beautiful quit in Vera’s condo, she convinces Vera that they should make her mother a similar quilt for Christmas! 

Vera is surprised when suddenly she is meeting people in town who are interested in helping put this quilt together. This tale gets very interesting as four women with very different personalities gather together to create this quilt. You will be surprised to see what changes come about in this town by the final page!

I received a copy of this book from Revell in exchange for my honest review.
