The giving quilt [large print] / Jennifer Chiaverini.
At Elm Creek Manor, the week after Thanksgiving is "Quiltsgiving." Quilters gather for a special camp to make quilts for a charitable organization dedicated to providing handmade quilts and blankets to children in need. Each quilter, ever mindful that many of her neighbors, friends, and family members are struggling rhough difficult times, pledges the strength of her creative gifts to alleviate their collective burden. As the week unfolds, the quilters respond to Mast Quilter Sylvia Bergstrom Compson Cooper's question "Why do we give?" in ways as varied as the life experiences that drew them together.
