The Persian Pickle Club by Sandra Dallas

4.0

I picked this book because it was about a group of women who quilt together. Persian Pickle refers to a quilt pattern (also a term for Paisly). My mother was an avid quilter, as were the 2 generations before her and I expect the quilters go back further. My mom belonged to a quilting group and it was always a pleasure to get together with them during my trips back to Iowa. I enjoyed this book because I could i agine my maternal ancestors in sush a group. There is not much more powerful than a united group of women and that is what this book portrays. It may not have the most lyrical language, but the words were genuine and spoke to me. My mother passed away this year and there were moments during this reading I was missing her so very much. She left me several unfinished quilts I promised I would complete. Wish me luck.
