The fourth challenge for season 14 of Project QUILTING was “A Novel Project.” With this challenge, folx had to share what book inspired their quilted creation. Trish compiled a list of all those books. I am sharing links to the inspring books below in case you want to add to your bookshelves. I definitely have a quite a few books I’m adding to my reading list!
