Return to Elm Creek Manor with a heartfelt historical fiction celebration of quilting, family, community, and history from New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Chiaverini.

As Sylvia Bergstrom Compson contends with financial setbacks at Elm Creek Quilt Camp, her friend and colleague Summer Sullivan asks a special favor. In this compelling sister story, when Sylvia and her elder sister were teenagers, they entered a quilt in the Sears National Quilt Contest for the 1933 Century of Progress Exposition. The unprecedented competition offered its 25,000 participants the opportunity for artistic expression, the thrill of competition, a tantalizing grand prize, and fame, with the finalists' quilts prominently displayed at the Chicago World's Fair--a poignant snapshot of 1930s America during the Great Depression. If Sylvia lent the Bergstrom sisters' World's Fair Quilt to Summer's exhibit, it would illuminate a forgotten chapter of women's history.
