I don't quilt, It seems to be one of those activities that define a person. One doesn't just quilt. They become a quilter. It's their identity. And when I see the works of art the quilters in my life create, I am in awe. The story of "A Tapestry of Secrets" surrounds two women - a grandmother and granddaughter both blessed with the ability of sew works of art.
I quite enjoyed how this book dealt with not judging a person's surface and the secrets that hide in every family. It was a story of redemption, of letting go of the past and of overcoming personal failure. It was also inspiring to read of a young person willing to set aside personal aspirations for the sake of loved ones. (even if it is only fiction) While there is most definitely a romantic aspect to "A Tapestry of Secrets", it is secondary to the main story line.
"A Tapestry of Secrets" by Sarah Loudin Thomas is a nice, rainy day read however, it isn't one I would read over and over again. The story moved at a nice enough pace but it didn't captivate me.
