Jennifer Chiaverini (born 1969) is a New York Times bestselling author of several historical novels and the Elm Creek Quilts series, as well as six collections of quilt patterns inspired by her books.
Her original quilt designs have been featured in Country Woman, Quiltmaker, Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks Volumes 3-5, and Quilt, and her short stories have appeared in Quiltmaker and Quilters Newsletter. She also designed the Elm Creek Quilts fabric lines for Red Rooster Fabrics. Her first book, The Quilter's Apprentice,[1] was released in 1999.
About her historical fiction, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writes, “In addition to simply being fascinating stories, these novels go a long way in capturing the texture of life for women, rich and poor, black and white, in those perilous years.”
Chiaverini's 2016 book, Fates and Traitors, tells the story of John Wilkes Booth from Booth's point of view.[3]
In 2017, Chiaverini released Enchantress of the Numbers, a historical novel about the mathematician Ada Lovelace.[4]
