Elm Creek Quilter's Books and Project Linus

Author Jennifer Chiaverini is teaming up with Project Linus to offer Elm Creek Readers the chance to decide whether Sarah’s twins will be boys, girls, or one of each! If you've not read any of these books, I highly recommend them - they are great novels with a good story line, some history, some quilting info (even for you non-quilters), etc.

PROJECT LINUS AND TAPS

Project Linus, both nationally and our local chapter, is a big supporter of the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors. The May 31, 2010, Time magazine has a great article about the program at:
