Here is a list of them that I just looked up. They aren't listed in order; but you can find the dates they were published in this list and go from there. I do like to read a series of books in order. Here's the URL for the list http://www.fictiondb.com/author/jennifer-chiaverini~32200.htm

Me too. I would sacrifice lots of my other quilting spending if I could sit with the gals at Elm Creek Quilt Camp for a week!

I also enjoyed her books but what are these Union Quilters you all talk about? Who is the author? I get my books at the library because my husband & I go through so many we'd be broke if we had to buy them!! Heck - that would mean less $$ for fabric - HORRORS!! Thanks

I've read all but the last one...waiting for the price to come down. :-) I like the ones from the 1800s the best. You do not have to read them in order. Some books flash back to the old days and then the next book is modern day. They may mention characters from other books but it doesn't matter to the storyline.

Try "fantastic fiction".They have them in order by date written and where to buy them.

Love these books ! looking forward to her next one. I am waiting for her to write about Elizabeth and if and when they find her family. Or did I miss this? I get mine at my library.

I listen to those books on CD as I'm driving the 6 hours back and forth to Tulsa Ok... Really good books on tape.. But when I read them I get sleepy fast... Good clean story line!!! Diana in Texas

I enjoyed the first few, then sort of forgot about them. Will have to catch up!

I'm reading the Winding Ways Quilt book right now. I've really enjoyed them from the beginning. I'm a slow reader so it takes me awhile.
