I LOVED this book! I actually read it after reading Ms. Gillespie's other book,"Confessions of a Recovering Slut: And Other Love Stories" which is one of my favorite books ever! Just don't read it around anyone because you'll be laughing and giggling so much,people will think you're nuts! Hollis Gillespie Rules!!!

I am addicted to this series of booklets "Art to Heart" series! They are so fun and colorful and with so many quilts you will never run out of patterns!

These women are amazing,surviving with barely having enough to feed her children,let alone clothe and house them. Times were very hard,but they survived through hard work and hard work and hard work.Pay was very low and their husbands and /or fathers worked in the only place that was available for them,the backbreaking work in the underground coal mines where many didnt survive and they were often left with many children,living in shacks with no electricity,no money,and no way to make money. Makes me very appreciative for the life and ease we have today.

I have read many books about people being knocked down by horrible things that life sometimes dishes out for us but to read her story I found myself astonished by her ability to pick herself up and put one step in front of the other no matter what,again and again. She is a very strong,brave woman who did just that in light of not one but several tragedies. Very inspiring.

Yet another proof that not all of us had idyllic childhoods. Sadly I am a member of this group but reading about others strengths and overcoming obstacles helps me tremendously to know you can grow up and be successful no matter how haphazardly you were raised.

Oh my gosh!I almost feel sorry for this author,this is her first book and it is amazing! It will be very hard for her next book to compare to this.Everytime I opened it and began reading,I was transported right on this familys front porch,with a sweaty canning jar full of super sweet tea,sitting in an old ladder back chair with the seat almost busted through,eavesdropping on all the secrets and stories this family had to tell! I hated to see the book end!
