A Lively Hope #49
New kit in the works and a little Resistance Quilt
Around Here
New kit/pattern are almost ready to release! This one has been on my mind for a long time, and I’m so glad it’s finally almost finished!
I finished this small art quilt recently and I’m totally smitten with how it looks on the wall.
Reading:
This Must Be The Place by Maggie O’Farrell ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I am working on becoming a Maggie O’Farrell Completist because I’ve loved everything I’ve ever read by her. This book was good, but it’s no Hamnet. The main character is not admirable and while he does undergo some growth throughout the book I felt like it was rushed at the end. The other characters are delightful. Overall I’m glad I read it.
The Quiet Librarian by Allen Eskins ⭐⭐⭐⭐
A powerful historical fiction story set in two timelines: modern day and during the Bosnian War. It features a strong female character out to find justice for her murdered family and friends. Not my typical genre, but I did enjoy learning more about a conflict that happened during my lifetime but which I knew very little about.

This slow stitch book has been such a joy to work on! And I’m excited about what’s next in this series. Stay tuned!
