Description
#1 New York Times Bestselling Author vUSA TODAY Bestselling Author
Susan Wiggs writes straight from the heart about the bonds between mother and daughter. Endearing, touching and wise—The Goodbye Quilt is the perfect read for any woman who’s had to let go of someone special.
Linda Davis’s local fabric shop is a place where women gather to share their creations: quilts
commemorating important events in their lives. Wedding quilts, baby quilts, memorial quilts— each is bound tight with dreams, hopes and yearnings. Now, as her only child readies for college, Linda is torn between excitement for Molly and heartache for herself. Who will she be when she is no longer needed in her role as mom? What will become of her days? Of her marriage?
Mother and daughter decide to share one last adventure together—a cross-country road trip to
move Molly into her dorm. As they wend their way through the heart of the country, Linda stitches
together the scraps that make up Molly’s young life. And in the quilting of each bit of fabric—the hem of a christening gown, a snippet from a Halloween costume—Linda discovers that the memories of a shared journey can come together in a way that will keep them both warm in the years to come....
