Readers are story lovers, but are creative people in their own right. When they read about the quilt, they want to create one of the patterns touched on in the book.

In this story, two founding members of Elm Creek Camp had to leave to pursue other interests. This is the search for two replacements. There are five new characters, four women and one man, who have different backgrounds and areas of quilt history.
