Julia, Megan, Donna, Grace, and Vinnie are cross-country
friends who are about to begin work on a challenge quilt. A
piece of fabric is divided among the women, with the
understanding that the following year they will all meet at
the Elm Creek Quilt Camp to sew the sections together into a
single quilt. But the friends have set themselves a special
challenge: no one can start working on her block until she
has taken steps to solve her problems and achieve her
personal goals.
Although they share a common
creative objective, the Cross-Country Quilters find their
friendship tested by the demands of everyday life. Yet
despite differences in age, race, and background, the
women's love of quilting and affection for one another unite
them. The quilt they create becomes a symbol of the threads
that hold their lives together-a glorious patchwork of
caring and loyalty that brings home an enduring truth:
Friends may be separated by great distance, but the strength
of their bond can transcend any obstacle.
