A stroll through a garden for the soul. Christenings, courtships, and weddings...graduations, parties, and parades...anniversaries, birthdays, family gatherings...Occasions like these are made more special by the beauty of flowers -- a gorgeous orchid, a wreath of sweet violets, daisies handpicked by a child, a perfect rose grown and given with love. In Flowers Are Forever, Kathy Lamancusa celebrates the countless ways that flowers enrich our lives and touch our hearts in this bountiful bouquet of true and inspiring stories. An accomplished author and teacher, Lamancusa has shared the joy of flowers with thousands of people. Now, she has collected more than 100 true stories about flowers -- some of them written by individuals who make their living by selling, arranging, and delivering flowers for just about every occasion imaginable, others by ordinary people who have been moved by the gift of an iris, a tulip, or a lily. Inspiring, funny, romantic, or poignant, these stories are as unforgettable as the scent of your favorite blossom.

QUILTS - PIECES OF FABRIC SEWN TOGETHER LIKE MOMENTS IN TIME, AS HANDMADE AS LIFE ITSELF Every quilt has a story to tell, an endearing story that lasts forever. Whether it is a craft-fair find, a generations-old family heirloom, or an art collector's most prized piece, quilts warm our bodies and our hearts. Ever since pioneer women organized sewing circles to combat the harshness and isolation of the American West, women have turned to quilting to celebrate, share, and heal. In this heartwarming collection of inspirational stories, we see the celebrations, joys, and heartaches behind the stitches. One family lovingly pieces together a birthday present for their aging father, while a garage-sale quilt comes to symbolize the ties between a young man and his mother. Thirteen pre-Civil War ladies sew squares for their schoolmate's wedding quilt, while a young boy adds his own square to the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt in honor of his father. No matter the circumstances, these stories deliver the spirit of quilting, friendship, and love with every word.
