Back in March I joined a reading group
organized by
Above is the book and the wonderful fabric goodies that I received from
Melody in NY.
as you may know from my previous post,
so these fabrics were a great addition to my stash,
especially the book print on the top as I did not have any of this pretty.
I was in Washington visiting my daughter when
the book was received by my guys here in Massachusetts
so I got a late start on reading the book.
It was a fun and easy read.
When it was time to pass on the book to the next person in the book group,
I found that the book was only going as far as Connecticut to
so Nancy and I decided to add to the fun ...
... by meeting up at the
where Nancy was a vendor.
While I was there I could not resist this cute pattern from Nancy's shop.
Nancy made the fabric bag to give to customers at her booth.
How cute is that!
Here is a close up of ...
... the fabric goodies I gave to Nancy,
I also added some cute buttons.
The gifts are chosen to relate to the story.
You will have to read the book to see why.
The only hint I will give is that
the main characters in book are 9 years old in 1961.,
which is the summer I turned 9 myself.
Parts of this book really brought me back to those days.
It was a very enjoyable summer read.
Thanks, Bernie, for including me in this Fiction and Fabric Fun!
