Do you love to quilt AND love to read?I invite you to join the free, online Quilters' Book Club. Each month,we read a book, discuss it through comments on my blog posts, and then make a quilt block to represent that book.

Our book to readand discussduringMay 2014 is THESE IS MY WORDS: THE DIARY OF SARAH AGNES PRINE by Nancy E. Turner. It's historical fiction, but the author based the book on the life of her great-grandmother.

Hopefully, you have had time to complete the book by now. I'd love to hear your thoughts on one or both of the following questions.

TraceSarah's evolution from a young, unschooled girl with rough, homespun grammar toa polished and literate writer. Where in her diary writings do you begin tonotice the change?

Sarahis relentless in her quest to educate herself. Why do you think this is so? Howdoes it change her relationships with her family and friends?
