I love it when the weather turns cozy.
Cozy means quilts and hot cocoa.
But you don’t have to wait for winter to enjoy a quilt.
Quilts make a terrific summer fort.
Quilt making is wonderful community, no matter the season!
When I’m wishing for cozy, I think of Q, and my favorite quilt stories come to mind:
The Keeping Quilt, by Patricia Polacco
Stitchen’ and Pullin’ by Patricia C. McKissack
Sweet Clara and the Freedom Quilt by Deborah Hopkinson
Luka’s Quilt by Gerogia Guback
So read a book, quilt a Q, and embark on a literary tradition!

Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for correcting my error that was a result of blogging late into the night! Of course I know this title… I have actually read your book to scores of children, including my four. My copy is well worn. In fact, your exceptional story is one that I would love to eventually include in an Earlybird collection.
Hi! A quick correction: I think there is a book called The Keeping Quilt. But the title of my picture book is Sweet Clara and the Freedom Quilt. Thanks for including it!
