A Lifelong Love for Quilting Starts in 1967, Arthur, Illinois
Despite the best efforts of Emma Bontrager’s mother, Emma hasn’t learned much of anything that will prepare her to be an Amish wife. Therefore, she’s sent to Arthur, Illinois, to be taught by her paternal grandmother. Though she would rather be fishing, hiking, or playing baseball, Emma finally listens to her grandmother and even finds she enjoys working on a Tree of Life quilt. Having met a nice young man, she now feels more prepared for marriage. But rumors swirl around his character, and it looks like she’ll be returning to Indiana with a broken heart. Even so, her time in Illinois has ignited a new passion for quilting that will last for years.
- A stand-alone prequel to The Half-Stitched Amish Quilting Club and Half-Stitched, the musical.

My Review:
Wanda E Brunstetter is my go to when I am wanting to read an Amish / Mennonite book. It was an honor to be chosen to read her newest, The Beginner's Quilt. I was excited to find out it was a prequel to one of my favorites written by her, The Half-Stitched Amish Quilting Club series. I loved going back in time and meeting the young Emma Bontrager. I loved the twist that I did not expect about halfway through. I was instantly hooked and had to finish it to find out how it would end. I loved it.
I would have given The Beginner's Quilt one hundred stars if I could have. I highly recommend it for readers who love to read clean and sweet Amish Romance. As always, I will be eagerly awaiting the next release from Wanda E. Brunstetter in the future.
I received a paperback copy of Wanda E Brunstetter's The Beginner's Quilt from the publisher, but was not required to write a review, nor a positive one. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
