I like the characters. I wish the level of writing would be higher then the 8th grade level.

I've read all of them and I have to say that the last one is the one I enjoyed least. Now I have to figure out what to do with all of them as they are taking up too much room in my sewing room.

Those are my favorite also. Her writing puts you right into the story, doesn't it? Edie

Ladies, I only read the "Aloha Quilt" and certainly did enjoy it. Is there a sequel to follow reading her books?

Aren't they the greatest? I have read quite a few of them and they make you feel you are right with them and part of their group:

Love love, love these books! I have read 8 so far and just finished The Sugar Camp Quilt. If only a small part of it is based in fact they are most enlightening.
