The Quiltmaker's Gift: A Book Review

Reprinted from 12/05

Do you read the Christmas Story to your children as part of your holiday tradition? Expand your tradition to include The Quiltmaker's Gift. It is the heartwarming story of a greedy king who learns the importance of giving from an old quiltmaker who only made quilts for the poor. The book is beautifully illustrated, and captures the reason most quilters make quilts. This book should definitely be part of your library. For us quilters, there are two spin-off books to spark your creativity to make some of the quilts from The Quiltmaker's Gift. They are Quilts from the Quiltmaker's Gift and More Quilts From the Quiltmaker's Gift.
