I have the audio books and I love them. Have listened to about half of them while I quilt. It makes me feel as though I have someone quilting with me.

They are wonderful stories. Once I start a book, I have to finish it.

I found all the Elm Creek novels addictive. I couldn't put them down. I've read them all, a couple more than once.

My DD & I met Jennifer Chiavarrini at a talk she gave last year. She signed my Sylvia's Bridal Sampler. I just finished the quilt last month.

I believe a new novel "the Wedding Quilt" is coming out next month. Also a new pattern book later in the month.

My MIL gave me one for my birthday that she found at a yardsale. She gave me a large gift bag full of quilting books and that was in there too. That was the Christmas Quilt. I later found the Quilter's Legacy at the library book sale for $1. I haven't read them yet. I have been reading the Amish books by Beverly Lewis.

Yes the Elm Creek series is wonderful. Through my job I recently got an advance copy of The Wedding Quilt and it's another winner!!

If you like "Quilty Fiction" you might also want to try Marie Bostwick's novels, Cobbled Court series. Also, Claire O'Donohue writes the Someday Quilts mysteries, and Arlene Sachitano writes the Loose Threads mysteries.
