For the second time, Priscilla has to determine how to deal with the fallout from bullying by Susie Byler. Will it drive a wedge between Priscilla and the community or, even worse, Stephen Esh? This Amish novella is a perfect read for young adults and adult readers who love Amish or Christian fiction. Includes discussion questions for book clubs or just private reflection.

This book follows the Amish 16 year old, that is being courted by a wonderful Amish man.The girl that delt trouble in the Tomato Patch, now has accused Pricilla of stealing herquilt design, along with other hurtful things. As the winter comes, the quilting bees start.The mature women now are seeing the hurt and disgrace that the young girl feels, they rallyaround and help her see what she must do to be the Amish woman she hopes to be.This is a wonderful teaching book of how we older women have an obligation to mentor our younggirls, so that they can take our places as we leave, forget or move on to other things in life.I bought this book to "get the rest of the story"...and I will buy further books by this Author.These are shorter and well written, with a flow to the story that I like.

Excellent book! Granny's knitting circle knitted far more than just yarn! They knitted the lives of the ladies together to make them all much stronger. Their love for knitting drew them closer in their love for each other and for God.

Maybe I am influenced by the fact that my most prized possession in my home is the Amish hand-made quilt purchased from the farm on which it was done. This was a wonderful story of the young woman who is starting her adult life and learning how to work through some of the frustrations of a newly-developing relationship. The difficult personality of the woman in the first book is showing up even stronger than in the first story, but the families and community of friends find ways to work together to find the best ways to get beyond the challenges. As my mother told us many times, a quilting bee is one of the most effective ways for the women in a community to work on creating a beautiful product to share and also to work on not-so-beautiful behaviors among their community.

I enjoyed this book it was a easy read, had its struggles in the family challenges of jealousy from others. A struggle to fit in, be judged and still try to fallow the rules of life and your heart also. It is about family and struggles. We all have them. But to put God in the first position is the answer to all the struggles in life. Thank you for helping me to really put God first and pray about things before I take over.

In the second volume of this book about bullying in the Amish community continues. The buller is bound and determined to tray and get her victim shunned. That way she can have the guy, the marraige, and the fair tale story.It's sad to think that people really think that little of themselves that they need to try and ruin another persons life.Again it show the vitim is able to withstand it all and raise above it all. It shows who your good friends are and who are the ones that want to live the "cool" life.These 2 books are good for any young girls to read to understand why the girl 2 lockers down from here is saying stuff that doesn't make sinse to her.Great read and I highly recommend this for mothers and young girls to give the an insite of how jealousy and bullying works and why. Also how not to feed into it because that only makes it worse.

Going into this one, I was hoping it would tell more of Priscilla's story. I was happy with the continuation and loved how you got to see more of her family and the people in her community that are her friends. I couldn't believe how rampant the gossip was and how easily they were to follow another person no matter what they said.Ms. Price is a fantastic writer. I enjoyed how she made her characters so easy to relate to. I loved seeing more of their community come alive. Her words on the page kept me for a brief time in a world I know so little about. I was impressed with how I was able to get such a depth into a character in such a short time and it didn't feel rushed. I cannot wait to get the next one in the series and see what happens to Priscilla next.

I love the innocence of the main character (Priscilla) and how she tried so hard to do what was right. She truly wanted to please God, Stephen and her family. I think every young Christian woman should read this series. The good that came from an evil intention was a lesson well learned.

I just finished "the "The" Quilting Bee" by Sarah Price. It was really enjoyable. I liked the characters. They were realistic and funny, & the author also does a really good job as always of portraying the Amish lifestyle. The one disappointment that I felt was that I really wanted to see more of Suzie's reactions to things. I realize that some things have to be continued on for the length of the series, but I wanted the author to go deeper into that aspect of the story. In other words, show us more of what's going on in Susie's head. Other than that, I am enjoying the series.
