Having read all the Elm Creek books, I would say it was highly likely that it was a Featherweight, but that is just my opinion, it never really says.

Love the series and have made several blocks but a quilt not yet.

I finally started the series this past year after so many people telling me I should try them. I've read and enjoyed the first four so far. I'm fortunate that even though I have vision issues my local library system has them as audio books.

I have been listening to them on mp3 audiobooks I download from my local public library. FYI, in one of the later books, they *do* mention that it is a Featherweight. When I read that, my little inner voice was going, "Yes! I knew it was a Featherweight!"

I haven’t read one in a while. I have read at least five of them.

I also read that series of books, really enjoyable. I just read Ann Haywood series about quilting that was good also.

I used to read them. I'm sure I'm so behind by now. I think I was up to the one that was about Lincoln, I think that was it. At the time I was taking a civil war quilting class where we also learned more about the civil war and they just went so good together.
